6.2 Action Required:
Tim Liu founded PentaValley Car Rentals six years ago. He started as a sole trader with only three cars. His company now employs 33 people and has a fleet of 2,000 vehicles. Tim is the CEO. He has four fellow directors. They are responsible for financing, vehicle repair, marketing and management. The last role includes handling all recruitment matters. The financial director has three assistant accountants. The manager in charge of vehicle repair has two supervisors who report to him – one for the day and one for the night shift. They each have six mechanics working under them. The marketing department has four people – one sales manager and three junior sales assistants. The department comprises six office staff who take all reservations and are accountable to the office supervisor who is under the direct control of the manager.
This kind of structure has served the business well, but Tim is concerned about the impact of further expansion on the organization. In particular, he plans to develop two projects – one that will include leasing trucks to other companies and the other that will establish a new office in another country.
