Examples of Monopoly

No U.S. markets are more monopolistic than utilities. Providers of water, natural gas, telecommunications and electricity are usually granted exclusive rights to service municipalities through local governments.

Harold Demsetz pointed out that these markets had no such monopoly tendencies before exclusive rights were granted; up to 45 different electric light companies operated in Chicago in 1907, for example.

Trucking and railroad companies became monopolistic after establishment of the Interstate Commerce Commission, which imposed heavy costs

sertanlavr [38]

Evgen [1.6K]

The critical explanation of the change in Smith's behavior is that he was not renumerated for his efforts at performing higher level tasks and he became disgruntled and disillusioned with work.

The action I would have taken if I was Smith's immediate boss would be to give him a formal warning and pay his acting allowance fees without delay.

<h3>What is Job Satisfaction?</h3>

This refers to the situation where a worker is happy at his job and is willing to give his maximum input to the job.

Therefore, there can be a recurrence of such cases if the motivational climate of the organization is not improved as workers would feel less valued.

The steps I would take as Chief Executive of the company to solve the problem are:

  • I would have an open-door policy for staff to come directly to give complaints, or ideas
  • I would ensure that workers are not overloaded with work, no matter how eager they might seem.

Questions:

  • a)     Critically explain the change in Smith's behavior.
  • b)     What would you have done if you were his immediate boss?
  • c)     Do you feel that the recurrence of such cases can be avoided by improving the motivational climate of the organization?
  • d)     What steps would you initiate as Chief Executive of the company to solve the problem?
