Rakesh is working in a blue pottery industry. His job is to paint the pots. He daily paints 30 pots out of which two or three get spoilt due to mishandling of the pots. His foreman, Mr. Mohan knows about the damages made by Rakesh, but does not tell him anything. One day Mohan scolds Rakesh as he had spoilt 5 pot out of 30. Identify the method of analysing deviations used by Mohan.

Management by Exception

The correct answer is option (4) : Management by Exception

The method of analyzing deviations used by Mr. Mohan in this scenario is "Management by Exception." This approach involves focusing management attention on significant deviations from the expected or planned performance. In this caser Mr. Mohan did not intervene or scold Rakesh when he was painting 30 pots with 2 or 3 getting spoiled, but he took action when there were 5 pots spoiled, which is a significant deviation from the usual performance. Management by Exception is about addressing and taking action on significant deviations, allowing routine matters to proceed without detailed managerial intervention.
