Strong doubt that the Boss is leaking the sales enquiries to the competitors

riyarodeshia
In my organisation there are 5 employees, taking care of Sales Activities and one Boss. All the 5 employees are relatively new however the boss is working from last 14 years. No junior employee could stick to the company for more than an year or two. now my existing 5 members team have a strong doubt that the Boss is leaking the sales enquiries to the competitors because of which they are not able to close the sales deal... The management also have the same doubt but no one has any proof against this man... Can you please suggest what should be my take in this case??

You can stringent the sales goals the Boss and make it clear that Non-performance can lead upto termination.
If he is the leakage then he would have to decide if he need the Job, else you could know by way he work after this.

The matter needs to be viewed very seriously as it involves organizational interest. My suggestion is that you should engage the services of a professional investigation agency to track the activities of the boss and provide a report. If the investigation confirms the suspicion against the boss, appropriate action to separate him from the service of the organization should be taken. This should be done on urgent basis.
Thanks.

Dear Friend,
1.I suggest let superior of this boss give him 50% higher sales target for the next six months.Management should monitor his achievement agaist the target each month..This criteria will prove if the boss under suspecion is really interested to work honestly.
2. Change the department of this boss & see the flow of enquiries, this can give you some clues.
3. Access his official email account in his absence this can also give you some clues about incoming enquiries to your company. Then see how many such enquiries have been responded & how many not responded. Check if the person is over quoting , regreating any such enquiries so as to make way for competitors
4.Keep in touch with your regular customers & tactfully try to know from them if they had made any business enquiry in recent past with your company & how was the response.
5.Lastly appoint a private ditective
Best luck

1. The boss is already under the scanner due to suspicion that he is compromising company interest.
2. The suspicion has to be irrefutably confirmed.
3. The surest way would be to have the boss\'s activities tracked & investigated through a professional agency in strict confidence. Normally, the investigating agency will provide its report in two weeks\' time .
4. The various other measures suggested are either time consuming or may not yield the desired results. Besides, the element of confidentiality that is required in such matters involving integrity of people in higher levels will be lost. Mind you, the suspicions have to be established without a shed of doubt.
5. Clearly, this is an issue relating to ethics and values, and hence the matter has to be viewed seriously and action taken with a sense of urgency and sensitivity.
Thanks.
