- Consider what you would do at each stage.
- Can you think of any drawbacks to the possible approaches suggested in each stage?
- Think about an underperforming employee that you manage (or imagine that one of your team members is underperforming) – could any of the possible approaches be helpful in this situation?
It is rare that there is just one way to respond to a scenario or situation, so do not consider that the response you have chosen to this scenario will be judged as right or wrong. Share your scenario with a work colleague and ask them to tell you if they think you have responded appropriately. Ask them to challenge your response if necessary. You do not need to submit this task for assessment unless asked to do so by your tutor.
