From the selected case scenario, it can be observed that due to the diverse nature of the
employees’ age working for the Acme Medical Supply, there are serious work related
conflicts among the workers of the company. As a result of this conflict in between the staffs
of the company, the sales and revenue of the company is also affected in a negative manner.
Thus, a new company bought Acme Medical Supply and they felt that to regain the revenue
and sales of the company, team work is crucial. To achieve the new owner’s plan, the
following recommendation can be suggested.
 To achieve the goal of the new owners plan, the management must identify the
problems of the organization and thus it is the duty of the new manager to take
adequate actions to improve the condition. As a part of this, they should make a
team with same numbers of younger and adult people. According to the study of
Wang Waldman and Zhang (2014), it is reported that, the team work is very
effective in gaining a common goal set by the company.
 The management should arrange a workshop to enhance the team bonding among
the staffs of the organization. In this workshop, the staffs will gain knowledge
regarding the importance of team work within an organization. The study of
Körner et al. (2016), reported that, such work shop is very effective to enhance the
team bonding among the staffs of an organization. Along with this, the work shop
will also help to identify a common goal for all the staffs and they should
encourage to achieve the common goal as a team to enhance the revenue of the
company.
 According to the study of Wilson (2014), it is reported that, the diversity in the
work place is not at all a barrier in the work places in recent time. However, in
most of the work places, the issue of mutual respect is absent and thereby it is
hammering the productivity of the company. Hence, it is recommended that, to

enhance the mutual respect in the work places, the management must try to reduce
the work place stress, conflict and problems. Such measures will also help to
enhance the mutual respect among the employees. By using this intervention, the
present organization can overcome their problem.
