A good Management case study
The administrative building of a corporate company, stnding in the middle of the city is a proud possession for their employees. They used to lavishly light it up from outside. It was feast to outlookers.
The managing director of the company while signing the vochure for paining the building, doubted why the same job is taken up for every six months. The subodinates told him that it is due to bird droppings.
"why our building only?" he queried. it was found that by evening birds were attracted due to the trees and insects. Proposals were made and budgets were prepared for cutting of tree branches and pest control for insects. but the executive had the same doubt. why insects exceptionally prefer our building?"

After a through enquiry it was found that the building was being lighted up half an hour before the entire city was illumanated, with an over enthusiasm to show it to the public. By ordering the staff to dealy it by one hour, the executives could save lakhs of rupees to the organization. A lesson thought in the management course but also applicable in real life situations.
