Diana looked at the man in front of her. He was quite smart, handsome and had a well builded body. He was surely very attractive but not at all her type...
Whereas Jack was continuosly checking her out as if he had never seen a beauty like her before, obviously except their boss's daughter and her friends who were out of his league completely...
Stretching his hands a little bit towards Diana for a handshake, Jack introduced himself, "Hello Ms. Miller.. As Mrs. Brooks said, I'm Jack Evans. You can call me by my first name Jack like others do. And last But not the least, it would be great to work with you."
Diana shook his hand said, "Pleasure is all mine Mr. Evans.."
"Okay Jack. You go ahead and inform other teammates that that their head designer is here and she'll meet them after few minutes." Mrs. Brooks said.
Jack nodded his head and left to inform his teammates.
Mrs. Brooks took Diana here and there and showed her around the whole office while introducing her to each and every colleagues and employees with whom she needed to associate for her work purposes..
After forty five minutes of wandering and introductions, Mrs. Brooks finally fetched Diana to her last destination..
Stopping the elevator at 27th floor, she said, "This is the designing floor for garments and accessories. You are the sole Boss here of everybody on this particular floor. Whatever you say they have to obey.... without any complains and argument..
But first rememeber that, being a team leader is still easy but being the head of one full department is quite tough enough. Not only you have to maintain unity between all of your subordinates but also you have watch over themselves if they are doing there work properly or slacking here and there...
And for that you have to appoint team leaders, analysing their capabilities and potentiality. You are the one who will decide whom to choose for designing ethnic dresses and whom for Western attire..." Mrs. Brooks gave her a thorough details if her duty here.
Diana just listened to her attentively and captured all of the suggestions in her mind while Mrs. Brooks again started telling her more about her job...
"It doesn't end here because here comes the toughest thing for your first day of work as you'll be the one who will make sure of each and every worker must be the best for being creative in their own department and how to use their capacity into your advantage... First decide on who would be your two team leaders then divide the employees according to your preferences to different teams. If you need any help, ask me but remember one thing, YOU are the Boss here so you have to know how to control everyone..
Things will not go easy for everything but you have to stay determined on your own beliefs. Understand Miss Miller?"
Diana was scared a little at first hearing that she had to handle so many responsibilities on her own shoulder but when she remembered the only purpose for coming here which was to prove to her so called parents that she could be self-reliant without anyone's help, she got her self confidence back.
With faith in herself, Diana beautifully smiled at Mrs. Brooks before saying, "Don't worry Mrs. Brooks. I'll not let your hopes down from me. And please call me Diana."
"Okay. Now let me introduce you to your team.." Mrs. Brooks took her inside the big hall like room where different types of cabins with an extraordinary interior designs were set professionally. There were different types of mannequins present there with different types of clothing being kept here and there...
Around ten to twelve people were there working on their own computers but when they heard the sound of door opening, they all turned their heads to the source of the noise.
"Everyone, welcome your new Boss of Fashion Designing department, Diana Miller. I hope that you all will listen to her properly and help her in work with all of your heart." Mrs. Brooks said in an authoritative voice.
The sweet tone of her voice that she showed to Diana, was no more present there. Instead a firm tone had replaced in her vocal cord...
Everyone was shocked to see a beautiful young lady who seemed to be in her mid twenties to be their new boss. But the only exception was Jack as he was the one who had informed them beforehand about the arrival of Diana...
However after five minutes of their great shock, they broke into a big smile before greeting her..
Diana also introduced her by telling her name, college, job experiences etc... But it was still quite fornal.
The employees also introduced themselves and Diana observed each and everyone's behavior, work ethics very scrutinizingly as she had to choose the team leaders perfectly who would ensure the success of making a great team...
"Okay so guys. As it's my first day of working here and as I don't know about your pattern of works, I'd request you all to send me some of your designs to my office so that I can observe it and assemble you to the perfect teams." Diana said.
Everyone said okay and left to choose their designs and handed them to Diana. Observing all of the designs, Diana got the clue that whom should she made the team leaders and who were going to be their respective team members..
After taking a deep breath, Diana turned towards Mrs. Brooks and asked, "Can I made some changes in the team leader thing?"
"Yeah.. Definitely. You can do whatever you want after all it's your department now. And if you need any assistant, just inform me I'll find one for you " Mrs. Brooks said.
"Well, Mrs. Brooks.. Thanks for giving me the liberty to change decisions but about the matter of my assistant, I think I had already found one." Diana said looking at certain someone who was trying very hard to hide a little bit away from Diana's eyes...
