Task Overview and Context:

A. You received an email from Gina Harris, Human ResourcesManager.

Subject
Personal Development Plan
Hello,

A you are aware, BizOps Enterprises encourages and supports its staff to reach their potential
through mentoring, coaching and professional development to ensure their personal goals and
those of the organisation are met.

To this end, we would like you to prepare a personal development plan that outlines your career
objectives, personal goals, professional development activities and potential training required,
with actions required clearly stated.

I’ve been thinking about the issues we have been having with our customer service team this
year, as evidenced by the number of customer complaints. You mentioned in our last monthly
meeting that you believe people in your team are experiencing stress and do not have a good
work-life balance. I encourage you to consider training or mentoring for yourself in the first
instance, which may also be useful for others in your team at a later stage.

I recall other discussions we have had: while you feel you are currently competent, you know you
need to keep up to date with WHS matters to be an effective health and safety representative.
You also want to gain the Advanced Diploma in Leadership and Management but aren’t sure how
to approach this as you learn best through demonstrations and being able to ask questions face-
to-face rather than online. You have said that one of your career goals is to improve your
networks and perhaps join a professional association.

Your role as customer service manager includes a responsibility for promoting continuous
improvement in your team and in the organisation as a whole. You are required to consider your
needs for training and further support with this aspect of your role.

Below you will find a to-do-list, and a list of unscheduled events that have occurred today. Refer
to the “Instructions to the Candidate” section for a detailed description of what is required in this
project. You will need to make use of relevant BizOps policies and position description.

Regards
Gina Harris
Human Resources Manager
B. To-do-list Monday
Unscheduled events that have occurred today:
 Sales rep Roxanne bursts into your office, upset because a customer has verbally abused
her on the phone and is threatening to sue BizOps. The irate customer insists on speaking to
you.
 Gina, the HR Manager, telephones to ask you to come to her office when you have a spare
minute to discuss a situation that has arisen with the recruitment agency she is currently
dealing with.
 Craig Bullen, the interview candidate, telephones to say he will be 10 minute slate.
Instructions to the Candidate
Read the information that has been provided. You will also need to access the following documents:

 Organisation Operational Plan (Annex A)


 Work life balance policy (Annex B)
 Professional development policy (Annex C)
 Position Description (Annex D)

Use the information provided to you in the email to complete the following tasks. As your work ethic
could have significant effect on the work culture and patterns of behaviour of others in your
workplace, your response must reflect the level of responsibility of a customer service manager.

You must:
 Produce a document that describe how you prioritized the competing demands for your time
on Monday morning.
A business exists in a dynamic environment, it is inevitable to avoid uncertain events for a manager. So, a manager
must always be prepared to deal with whatever comes in his way. Similar situation exists for manager of Bizops, where
he need to prioritise out of the schedule events.

4.0 Risk

The timely recruitment and training of new staff is a key success factor in meeting the strategic
objectives of the business plan. In order to meet the objectives it is necessary to have recruited the
new staff and up-skilled our current staff in after-sales product support by 31 August. In the event that
we do not meet these objectives, we have budgeted an additional 5% of training costs to employ a
training consultant to provide additional training resources.

It is critical that our outlet managers monitor the progress of their operational plans against the target
KPIs established. To that end, it is essential to review the operational plan monthly.

Annex B : Work-Life Balance Policy
At BizOps Enterprises, work–life balance is defined as the development, implementation and
facilitation of initiatives that enable our employees to balance their work and personal lives. BizOps is
committed to providing a culture that is healthy and supportive of work–life balance. To achieve this,
BizOps promotes flexible work arrangements and other initiatives to support employees to balance
their work and personal responsibilities and interests.

Implementing work–life goals and strategies is designed to meet organisational and individuals'
needs. BizOps recognises that work–life balance is important to support recruitment and retention
strategies and to enable employees to contribute to the achievement of our organisational goals.

The work–life policy requires cooperation to ensure the needs of both the organisation and individual
employees are met.

Principles
• The business needs of BizOps and associated client activity must be fully addressed when
implementing the work–life policy. The impact on clients and colleagues must be positive, or at least
neutral, and must be fully understood by both the employee and their manager.
• Managers and supervisors should assist employees to access work–life policies and flexible work
arrangements. Managers and supervisors should ensure that employees are aware of their options;
give prompt consideration to requests; be fair and transparent in their decision-making and judge
individual cases on their merits.
• Requests will be fully considered, but employees need to understand that not all forms of flexible
scheduling are appropriate to all employees or positions.
• An open conversation is critical for evaluation and assessment of requests for work–life options
approval; however, the final decision will be made by a manager.
• Flexible working practices should not adversely affect an employee’s career or professional
development opportunities.
