Leadership is the ability to evaluate and or forecast a long term plan or policy and
influence the followers towards the achievement of the said strategy
Job satisfaction is the level of contentment a person feels regarding his or her job.
This feeling is based on an individual's perception of satisfaction. Job satisfaction
can be influenced by a person's ability to complete required tasks, the level of
communication in an organization, and the way management treats employees.
There are often two different levels of job satisfaction: affective job satisfaction
and cognitive job satisfaction. Affective job satisfaction is a person's emotional
feeling toward the job as a whole. Cognitive job satisfaction is how satisfied a
person feels concerning an aspect of his or her job, such as pay, hours, or benefits.
The connection between leadership and job satisfaction is a factor of the business
culture that can have far-reaching consequences. In the best of scenarios, managers
and other leaders within the company structure inspire employees to take pride in
their work and also feel competent in the tasks they are assigned. This goal is
pursued using a number of different strategies, helping to create a working
situation that enhances employee satisfaction in general, and satisfaction with
the job in particular. The end result is that the company enjoys a higher level of
productivity, there is a lower amount of employee turnover, and the working
environment tends to be more stable and appealing.
There
is
no
doubt
that
exercising

to
will be considered seriously. In turn, the manager will make the proactive effort to
understand both the strengths and the weaknesses of each employee, help the
employee when improvement is necessary and generally help that employee master
the skills necessary to be more productive. Adopting this type of give and take
situation in the workplace often helps employees to feel more invested in the
company
and
in
their
particular
team,
helping
to
forge
between leadership and job satisfaction that could not exist otherwise

A brief note on production facilities, production and location
All our factories are just two hours drive from Cochin
International Airport. The closest seaport is Cochin (two hours
drive).Our three factories have modern production lines fine tuned to
manufacture large volume of quality products. Intermixes mix various
rubbers with process chemicals, fillers, emulsifiers and vulcanizing
agents to form a precise rubber compound. This is then sheeted in
automated lines to required thickness, length, breath and weight. These
sheeted compounds are then vulcanized in heated hydraulic presses
holding the required moulds at high pressure and temperature for a set
period of time. The vulcanized compound now in a mat form is
trimmed, quality checked and packed for dispatch. Various mats
require different chemical formulations, inputs, heat curing time etc.
All our factories have captive power generation capability for
uninterrupted production.
