This project requires you to manage the performance of two team members and
one team. As part of the assessment, you will:
Vocational education and training is all about gaining and developing practical skills
that are industry relevant and that can help you to succeed in your chosen career.
For this reason, we are giving you the choice to base this project on your own
business, one you work in or a familiar with, or you can use the case study
provided. This will mean that you are applying your knowledge and skills in a
relevant, practical and meaningful way to your own situation!
If you are using your own business, it is important that you are able to access
enough information for your chosen business in order to be able to do your
assessment. You are required to manage the performance of one team and two
individuals. The team members must be able to perform work tasks related to the
operational plan. As a minimum your organisation must have an operational plan, a
risk management plan and policies and procedures relevant to performance
management and communication. You must also have access to data or
information to monitor, evaluate and provide feedback to the team members (take a
look at Section 3 of your Project Portfolio for more information).
If you are using the case study, the information required to complete this
assessment is contained in the Simulation Pack.
You will need to communicate with team members and a colleague/superior. Your
communication may be either directly with actual staff members or fellow
students/your assessor can play the roles of relevant people/parties.
Communication can be in any appropriate format (e.g., face to face, video
conference, email) as long as it meets the requirements outlined in the Project
Portfolio.
You will be collecting evidence for this unit in a Project Portfolio. The steps you
need to take are outlined below.
2. Preparation
Make sure you are familiar with the organisation you are basing this assessment on
and have read through the necessary background information (either your own
business, or the case study provided in the Simulation Pack). If you’re basing this
explain how your role supports people performance management and the
daily operations of your organisation.
describe the roles and responsibilities of your team and two team members.
4. Allocate work
Consult with a relevant person or group (e.g. the CEO or executive team) regarding
work that must be allocated to staff.
of work you are responsible for (that must be allocated within your team).
Start with completing Section 2 of your Project Portfolio. To do this, you need to:
develop work plans to efficiently allocate work to your team and two team
members.
i You may need to meet separately with individual team members depending on the
nature and location of your team and the work that is required (e.g. you may be
required to keep KPIs confidential and as such they cannot be discussed in a
group).
Make sure you have all the required resources ready for your meeting (e.g. printout
of policies and procedures).
i This meeting should take approximately 20 minutes. It may take place with actual
people who work for/are associated with your chosen organisation. Alternatively,
classmates or your assessor may play the role of one or more team members.
This can either be viewed in person by your assessor or you may like to video
record the session for your assessor to watch later. Your assessor can provide you
with more details at this step. Make sure you follow the instructions below and meet
the timeframes allocated. If this session is not viewed in person by your assessor,
you will attach proof of the meeting to Section 2 of your Project Portfolio.
At this meeting, take a leadership role and use language and structure appropriate
to the context and audience. You will be assessed on this.
5. Manage performance.
i Assume the work plans have been implemented. You must now manage and
monitor performance, providing informal feedback and coaching where required.
If you are using the case study, assume that it is July 2021. Additional information
to complete this step is contained in the Simulation Pack.
If you are using your own organisation, make sure you have the enough
information to fulfil the requirements in the Project Portfolio.
Start completing Section 3 of your Project Portfolio. To do this, you need
to:
manage the individual team member and whole team performance according
to the timelines outlined in your work plan and your organisation’s policies
and procedures.
i Assume a period of time has passed. Team members, and individuals in your
team have performed some (or all) the work tasks outlined in your work plan.
evaluate the performance of the two individual team members and your
team against performance standards and KPIs.
i You will implement these actions at the formal feedback session (if verbal
action is required), or at a later stage in this project (for other actions such as
warning letters that do not require verbal interaction).
Meet with each individual team member separately for a structured and formal
feedback session (follow the requirements of your organisation’s policies and
procedures (as identified in Section 1)).
As part of the meeting, discuss the team member’s performance and areas
requiring development.
If relevant, initiate the previously identified action to either address poor
performance (e.g. ask the team member if there are any external factors
contributing to their poor performance) or reinforce positive (e.g. discuss bonus or
salary increase).
i Each meeting should take approximately 20 minutes. It may take place with actual
people who work for/are associated with your chosen organisation. Alternatively,
classmates or your assessor may play the role of one or more team members.
This can either be viewed in person by your assessor or you may like to video
record the session for your assessor to watch later. Your assessor can provide you
with more details at this step. Make sure you follow the instructions below and meet
the timeframes allocated. If this session is not viewed in person by your assessor,
you will attach proof of the meeting to Section 3 of your Project Portfolio.
Make sure you have completed all sections of your Project Portfolio, answered all
questions, provided enough detail as indicated and proofread for spelling and
grammar as necessary. Remember to submit all necessary attachments as
indicated.
