Task 2 – Performance and Skills Assessment
General instructions
Scenario:
You have been working with a marketing company, Molly’s Marketing Maestros for the last
6 months. Since you started, you noticed a real lack of collaboration and innovative idea
sharing within the workplace, a vast difference from your previous role with a much smaller
recruitment agency. The office is very stark, with high dividers in between each work station
making it very difficult to have any sort of discussion with a colleague. The meeting rooms
are also small and don’t have any whiteboards or screens or projectors.
Your manager has noticed the same thing and has asked you to lead a project of making some
changes to the office. He wants it to be a collaborative effort with the other team members
but wants you to drive it.
This activity has 3 parts:
Part A – Team Set Up
Part B – Project Plan and Actions
Part C – Supporting Team Members
Part D – Reflection
Part A – Team Set Up
You are part of the campaigns team which is made up of you and 2 others. You can also
bring in 2 others from the office to assist and be part of this project. Your first task is to set
the direction for the team, to understand how you can all contribute and determine who else
you need to get into the team. You want to also work out how to get the most out of each
member.
1. Write a short statement outlining what the team needs to achieve. (50 words)
The main objective of the team is to create a new working environment that
facilitates innovation and provides huge space for creativity to emerge. The team
has to redesign the complete infrastructure of the office, as it should provide an
open space, which will offer the employees with the much-needed freedom to
innovate.
