Prema One has to have a particular skill in getting work done in marketing office these days.

Ranjan The secret is to be polite yet firm with the junior office staff. Unfortunately if one is too friendly with the staff they tend to take it as a sign of weakness.

Prema Oh, but there is no call to be pity with the staff.

Niren There is no cause to act superior if the companies office staff do their work conscientiously. Nevertheless some authority has to be maintained. Though one does not have to be a slave driver nor need one wreck the nerves of the staff members with scoldings.
