Differences in perception between junior and senior faculties about the importance of teaching and research in the campus Little collaboration among faculty members The university tried to give heavy workloads to the faculty members and that is why even the senior faculties were reluctant in accepting additional responsibilities. Management of the entire department along with teaching and research are extremely difficult.

Faculties with exceptional talents in management should give responsibilities based on their talent and for that purpose; seniority should never be a constraint. The barrier of experience for achieving higher places should be avoided and even the juniors should be given the opportunity in the management if they have adequate skills in such areas. Each hour spent in the first week by Vese in the University campus is important. He should be ready to spend some additional hours in the first week in order to establish a strong hold in the department.
He should meet each and every individual working in the department based on their convenience and discuss the departmental matters concerning to them with them. Vese should take note of each matter he identified during the first week from his meetings with the employees and the personal observations he made. Base on these notes or feedbacks, he should try to rectify the problems one by one from the second week onwards. Part II Organizational behavior is the study of individuals and the organizational
