Part 1 Case Study Overview
Welcome to Bounce Fitness
You are the centre manager for Bounce Fitness Cairns. There are two teams of fitness trainers that
directly report to you, Team A and Team B, with two members in each team. As the centre
manager, you are in charge of overseeing this branch’s performance, including the performance of
all its employees.
Fitness trainers of Team A handle one-on-one classes with their clients. The special feature of these
classes is that each training plan is catered specifically to each client’s needs and capabilities. These
trainers are in charge of creating training plans that are appropriate for each of their clients. They
also keep track of their clients’ fitness records which helps them adjust training plans depending on
their clients’ progress.
Fitness trainers of Team B handle the different fitness classes that Bounce Fitness. Each class has
an attendance of 10 to 25 clients. As part of handling group classes, Team B fitness trainers must be
knowledgeable on proper exercise and nutrition should their clients ask them for advice.
To help improve your employees’ performance, you decide to see how well members of each team
know their tasks. Based on your findings, you intend to organise learning opportunities to help the
fitness trainers perform better.

Part 2. Establish an Environment That Supports Critical and Creative Thinking
Task Overview
This part of the project requires you to establish an environment that support critical and creative
thinking. Specifically, you are required to:
f. Analyse current organisational systems to identify gaps and barriers to critical thinking
g. Develop processes that create a safe environment for critical and creative thinking
approaches
Resources Required:
To complete this project, you will need access to the following:
e. A simulated workplace environment that will allow you access to:
a. Organisational documents relevant to:
i. Performance Management System
ii. Customer Relations Management System
Part 2 Case Study Overview
Bounce Fitness Systems
You’ve reviewed that the task of each team allows them to practice their critical and creative
thinking skills. You want to ensure that these skills are supported by the current systems Bounce
Fitness has in place. You are aware that most of Bounce Fitness’s systems have not been reviewed
or updated for a while now. You decide that this would be a good time to look over the systems and
check for necessary changes or updates to make to improve Bounce Fitness’s processes.
You choose two systems to review that would be applicable to both your teams:
The first system is the Performance Management System. Bounce Fitness’ performance
management system puts into place an annual review for all employees. The organisation uses a
forced ranking system for its employees. In this system, there is a set percentage that tells how
many employees can be classified for each group.
Each employee’s performance is reviewed against their key performance indicators (KPIs). These
KPI differ per employee, depending on their role and responsibilities.
The second system is the Customer Relations Management System. This system contains a process
to handle client complaints. Clients are encouraged to fill out a complaint form for documentation.
These forms are then forwarded to the concerned department to be resolved. If clients are becoming
emotional enough that they might be disrupting others, employees may offer the client with a
$10.00 gift card to Bounce Fitness services as an apology for the inconvenience.
Bounce Fitness employees are also encouraged to recommend the product or service of the month
to their clients. This is to introduce them to new products and services that the clients might be
interested in.
Task 2.1 Analyse Organisational Systems
a. Access and review the following documents from the links provided to complete this task:
a. Business Objectives and KPIs
https://bouncefitness.precisiongroup.com.au/infrastructure/business-strategy-and-
planning-documents/
b. Locate the Organisational Systems Analysis Report provided within this workbook.
c. Complete the Organisational Systems Analysis Report. To complete the report, you must:
i. Identify at least one relevant business objective for each of the following Bounce Fitness
Systems:
a. Performance Management System
b. Customer Relations Management System
ii. Briefly explain the relevance of the identified business objectives to each Bounce Fitness
system.
iii. Analyse the processes found within the Performance Management System and the
Customer Relations Management System documents.
For each system, you must:
a. Determine if there are steps in the processes for each system that encourages employees to
practice critical or creative thinking
b. Identify steps in processes that are in place that seem to hinder the practice of critical or
creative thinking
c. Determine if a process is lacking a step in order for Bounce Fitness employees to fully
practice critical or creative thinking
iv. Identify either gaps or barriers in each system based on your analyses of each system:
1. If you identify barriers, identify at least two barriers for each system analysed:
Barriers are anything that hinders employees from exercising critical or creative
thinking methods.
2. If you identify gaps, identify at least two gaps to critical thinking methods for each system
analysed
Gaps refer to something that is missing from the processes that prevents
employees from fully practicing critical thinking methods.
v. Identify at least two resources used to implement each Bounce Fitness system.
Responses in this task will be used for Task 2.2.

Part 3 Case Study Overview
Workplace Problems
In the past few days, you have noticed the following workplace problems happening in your branch
of Bounce Fitness, Bounce Fitness Cairns:
Impatient Clients
One of your personal fitness trainer’s clients has expressed their lack of interest in the current
exercises they are performing because they are not seeing immediate weight loss results. They have
requested that their personal fitness trainer change some of the exercises that is currently part of his
training plan. The fitness trainer has approached you and the rest of Team A for help as this is the
third time the client has asked that their training plan be changed. The other members of Team A
have also experienced clients who become impatient when they do not see immediate results.
Trendy Classes
You notice that there are less clients attending the different in-house group classes offered by
Bounce Fitness. The current classes being offered are aerobic classes, circuit classes, and dance
classes. These classes have been offered to clients for more than a year now. When you asked one
of the Team B fitness instructors to ask their clients, the response they received was that it might be
because the classes were not ‘trendy’ enough. You realise that now would be a good time to
introduce a new class to your clients.
