Critical changes within Oz Industries are identified as the reporting structures, new
and old position titles and roles, workplace atmosphere, company perceptions and the

plan and introduce. This made her argue and resent on the new plans and policies stating that
the same is not sufficient and suitable for the Oz industries. In this connection, the senior
manager Meg and she used to have unnecessary arguments, and the same led to the
