Human Kind - Sample 3

I had a subordinate officer who has been selected by me as sample 3.
He is honest, hard working and systematic in his work. He is dependable.
But he had bad memories of his harsh younger years. Those who had difficult times while they were young are mostly found withdrawn and do not trust or mingle with other people easily.And our friend is one such person. So one cannot see a smile or happiness in his countenance most of the times.He always looks rough and tough and even while talking to any one during the course of business he will be found to be harsh to them.
But once again I repeat, He is honest, hard working, systematic and dependable.
And he is working in a service industry where interaction with customers is very essential and is the only work most of the time.
During the annual exercise of updating service reports of all employees and officers I made the suggestion that he may be posted in a place where he need not interact with other human beings.
And the next assignment he had was inside a computer room where he has to manage the machines only most of the times and his exposure to other human beings is very minimal.
He enjoyed the work and the institution also benefited because he managed the machines so well that they had fewer problems from machines side.
Identifying one's strengths and weaknesses and allotting suitable work to that person is the paramount duty of a Manager/Leader to maximize output and full utilization of available Human Resources.
All the Best.
