To influence the behavior of his employees

Step-by-step explanation:

Going all defensive is not a good sign for a manager who has the desire to positively influence his employees attitude and efforts at the place of work.if he continues going defensive the employees desire to work will be affected negatively.

Answer 2

The manager's ability to influence the behavior of its employees has been deteriorated

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason is that the senior must influence its employee by continuous training of its employees to get their hands on work and help them achieve the targets. The daunting behavior can not influence the employee behavior for a long time and as a result the employee gets demotivated which results in the de-motivation of employees.
