    Jancy, an employee in the HR department, had taken on many additional responsibilities beyond her job profile over the years. This led to her feeling overloaded and stressed, unable to properly balance her work and personal life. When she decided to resign, her boss Ratan convinced her to work from home instead to reduce her stress. However, Ratan told the CEO that due to Jancy's involvement nature, she would likely continue taking on more work even remotely. The CEO wondered if Ratan had planned this to prevent Jancy from replacing him.

    Is it a Planned Show

    Mrs. Jancy works with TBL global services, IT project management company, in
    the HR department. Jancy is known for her involvement not only in her duties
    but also in other various activities of the department. She was aware of many
    minute details about the department throughout her tenure. Hence she
    becomes a point of contact for any such information which often consumes
    her time.

    She is loaded with responsibilities very often, sometimes given to her and
    sometimes taken by her. In the beginning, she was happy with her profile and
    gave her the best in all the responsibilities with her. When years pass and she
    gets elevated to higher responsibilities she becomes overloaded. Still, she was
    happy with her job.

    One fine day suddenly, she realized that many of her colleagues complete
    their work on time and also equally take care of their personal life. On the
    other hand, Jancy, having been loaded with responsibilities completed it
    partially at work and partially during her personal time. This becomes a reason
    for her stress.

    She started questioning her ability to not being able to complete her work at
    the scheduled time. Later, she understood that apart from given responsibility
    she was involved in many other crucial activities of the department which
    becomes her additional responsibility which slowly the people forget that it is
    not under her job profile.

    Jancy Being highly disturbed started feeling her job as a burden. She thought
    she can’t come out of this because the habit which she developed for herself
    and her coworkers is irreversible. So she finally decided to take a break from
    her job.

    She fixed an appointment with the head HR, Mr. Ratan, for her resignation, He
    knows the fact that her involvement is irreplaceable and he also knew that she
    can be his competitor in a very short period, so, he had some other plans for
    her.

    During the conversation, Ratan understood that Jancy is highly stubborn in


    leaving the job. So he convinced her to do work from home and advised her
    to limit her responsibilities as she will not come in any direct contact with the
    employees. Jancy happily accepted the option and she felt relaxed.

    At the same time, Mr. Ratan was reporting to CEO Mr. Vedant “Sir, I didn’t
    accept the resignation. I have given Jancy the option of work from home and
    she accepted to continue the job”. Mr. Vedant asked ” but Ratan how did you
    made her accept this offer. And why you have given this option. As per her
    colleagues, her nature of doing the job is a key component.”

    Mr. Ratan with a smile replied. “Sir I advised her to limit her responsibilities to
    her profile by opting for work from home. She accepted the offer. And I am
    very sure that her very nature of involvement will not allow her to restrict her
    responsibility even after opting for work from home.” So I am not going to
    lose the benefit of her involvement.

    Mr. Vedant was worried by the last words of Ratan, he thought.”How I am


    going to execute my plan of replacing Jancy in Ratan’s position of Head HR as
    she opted for work from home and why did Ratan has that option to her. Is
    this a planned show “.
