Instructions:

It is now another two weeks later and Maggie, the new Accounts Manager will be commencing her employment the following week.

Complete the following activities:

1. Send the induction checklist that you created in Assessment Task 1 to the Principal Consultant (your assessor). As the Principal Consultant is just about to provide Maggie’s induction, include an overview of the induction process in a memo or an email as per the recruitment, selection and induction policy and procedure. Ensure you include timeframes in your overview.

2. Review the following information:

It is the end of Maggie's probation period and you meet with the Principal Consultant to discuss Maggie’s performance. The Principal Consultant indicates that while he is happy with Maggie’s performance overall, she doesn’t seem to be as productive and motivated as he would like. He explains that she sometimes seems to be waiting for direction instead of getting on with things.

12. Meet with Maggie (this will be your assessor). Your assessor will advise you of the date and time of the meeting. At the meeting you will need to explain the feedback from the Principal Consultant and enquire as to Maggie’s views on this.

During the meeting you will need to demonstrate effective communication skills, including speaking clearly and concisely, responding to questions and active listening. You will need to demonstrate appropriate non-verbal communication skills to show that you are open to Maggie’s views, as well as being empathetic. Maggie tells you that she is disappointed that it has taken three months, the end of her probation to be told her performance isn't up to scratch.

1. Assume that based on the outcome of the meeting above, one of the improvements you decide to make is to the induction process in terms of building in more formal feedback sessions via meetings instead of leaving all of the feedback to the end of probation. You have heard that other organisations are doing this so you decide to research strategies.

2. Following your review, develop a memo or an email to be sent to the Principal Consultant (your assessor) that outlines recommendations for improving the induction process as documented in the organisation’s recruitment, selection and induction policy and procedure.

Amend the induction process in the recruitment, selection and induction policy and procedure based on feedback provided by your assessor in return correspondence.

3. Update the policy and procedure and submit it to your assessor.
