Mr. Mercury, Ms. Slick, Ms. Joplin, and Mr. Morrison are divisional heads of an MNC company heading their respective units in four regions of the world. Mr. Mercury guides his unit and involves them during decision making, while Ms. Slick and Mr. Morrison decide the policies and programmes but leave it up to their units to complete their tat on their own and Ms Joplin creates an environment of fear and punishment and control her unit's activities by limiting their creative and innovative ideas. Each of these unit heads are allotted supervisors to work under them. Mr. Mercury meets his supervisor every week to check on the work allocated by the supervisor. Ms. Slick and Mr. Morrison give complete autonomy to their respective supervisors and encourage autonomy to subordinates under their supervisors.
