In response to the expansion of staff, Listo reorganized by adding layers of supervisors and managers between executive management and line staff; however, growth occurred so rapidly that proper training was not provided to the new employees. Management was less concerned with the employees’ opinions and was more focused on production and profit. Instead of enlisting employees’ opinions, more directive orders were given.
