Instructions for assessor
This assessment task requires the client to lead

project plan documented in Assessment 1. In
addition to your role as assessor, you must act as
the client’s manager/supervisor in this project.
Clients need to demonstrate their ability to make
decisions, resolve issues and develop team
cohesion. They must also support their team’s
goals and objectives, encourage responsibility for
their own work, provide feedback, and serve as
role models. They must hold progress meetings
with their teams.
Prepare to provide clients with feedback in the
form of an issue about the team (e.g. fair
distribution of work) or a complication (e.g. lack of
resources or timeline crunch) to be worked
through by the team led by the client.
Clients are required to hold a project progress
meeting in which they review team progress, and
during which they present information on and
evaluate their team’s performance in the project
so far. The client must demonstrate formal
thinking techniques, seek input from others and
conduct training/coaching/mentoring sessions to
address issues identified in their training planners.
The client is required to report on any issues or
problems the team has encountered, including
conflict. (Conflict resolution skills will be
addressed in Assessment Task 3.) Issues and
action taken must be recorded in an issues log.
Clients are required to present feedback collected
from their team on their effectiveness as a leader,
and provide a brief reflection on their success as a
team leader to you, the assessor, at a 15-minute
informal progress meeting.

project progress report, including their reflections,
and submit minutes of the meeting to you, the
