Re: Placement of Managerial Clients
Since our company does management consulting, we have two middle-management clients who have come to us looking for management positions. Each of the clients is qualified to work at the four large companies in the local region. I need you to analyze the four companies in the attached data file and make a recommendation to each client as to which company they would be better suited to. The data file contains a list of the salaries at each of the four companies. There are about the same number of managers in each company with roughly the same ratios of middle- to upper managers in each.
Each of our clients has just moved out of the lower 25pct management rank in his or her previous position. They are, however, quite different. Manager A is a confident go-getter who enjoys leaving the competition behind. Manager B, on the other hand, prefers to run with the pack. He wants to do well, of course, but stability and security are important.
To get started, you might consider generating comprehensive summary statistics and side-by-side box plots for these four companies. Based on what you learn from the box plots make a recommendation of a company for each client. Be sure to provide as much evidence as possible.
