Vaibhav, an employee in Jindal ltd., was instructed by Mr. Ashutosh (production Manager) to increase production of steel as there was an overpurchasing of steel. On the other hand, Mr. Raghav (Sales Manager) directed him not to increase the steel production as there was low demand for steel in the market. Vaibhav got confused regarding whose order to follow and hence was unable to work properly.
