Supervisor Contact

This involves strengthening the working bond between employees and supervisors. This approach enhances productivity and on-the-job training. The Supervisors who take the initiative to spend some time with the employees each day give very valuable advice to the employees. John has delegated the role of advising the employees concerning their morale at work to Trish.

There is need for Lee to get more training on customer relations because of the nature of her work. She has the obligation of answering calls, and welcoming visitors, administration duties and this requires that she train in soft skills to render her services well.

The learning delivery method is based on cognitive approach hence will include attending lectures and through e-learning.

  1. Tim has described John as his mentor. Explain the role of a mentor. Identify several tasks that are suitable to develop through coaching and mentoring.

A mentor is a person who shares with mentee information about his/her career path. The mentor also provides guidance, motivation, emotional support and guides someone’s character. A mentor is very essential in exploring someone’s career and setting of goals. A number of tasks are developed through coaching and mentoring such as leadership and managerial tasks, administration responsibilities among many others. A mentor or a coach provides this help through talking and interacting with the mentee. They also lead by example for the mentee to emulate the behavior. They therefore set precedence for the others to follow

  1. Describe two methods to collect feedback on performance.

Feedback on performance of employees is important to provide an evaluation of their progress. One method of collecting feedback on performance is through use of surveys. The organization uses questionnaires to get the performance of employees by scoring on various attributes that assess their performance. The second method is use of forums to establish customer’s perception of the products being produced. The company of a third party (Azulay, 2012 p 300) hosts the forums. Other ways is to analyze data on the employees’ performance such as sales volume among others.

7. Explain two reasons why it is important to maintain a record of staff development.

Maintaining a record of staff development is important because it allows the organization to plan on the training needs of its staffs to ensure that it remains updated on the same. The second reason is to ensure that there is no lack of certain skills or competencies to ensure that the organization remains competitive and achieves its goals. This as well allows the organization to be aware of the skills needed as well as the cost of equipping employees such skills (Hatry, Newcomer & Wholey, 2013)..
