Scenario
The management has considered all the proposals for improvement and have decided to
implement some of those solutions, including a mobile point of sale ticketing ordering system
to improve communication between the kitchen staff and the wait staff to eliminate most
communication issues.
The Head Chef and the Restaurant Manager are working on this project, and have delegated
some of their tasks to their team members. This has caused a sudden conflict situation to arise
between a wait staff and a kitchen staff as described below:
Mansour’s position
Mansour, one of the wait staff, is a new employee and has complained to you that he is being
given side tasks such as cutting vegetables and preparing salads by Mario, your colleague
and the other cook.
Mansour complains that because he is doing these tasks for Mario, he is not completing some
of his own specified tasks and as a result, the Restaurant Manager, who is his supervisor, has
pulled him up.
Mansour says that often he can’t understand what Mario wants from him, which causes him to
make mistakes or take longer to complete his task, as he needs to clarify his tasks all the time.
He gets confused when Mario shouts at him.
He is also upset that Mario does not believe him when he says he needs to complete his other
tasks in the restaurant area.
Mario’s position
Mario too complains that Mansour does not follow instructions, often disappears while on duty.
He thinks Mansour is avoiding work with the excuse that he has to time out for prayers, and
basically, he has a poor work ethic.
Mario, who is from a non- English speaking background, speaks with a heavy accent, which
makes it difficult for some people to understand what he is saying.
Mario is a hard-working person, but he has been under stress for the last few days as he is
covering some of the work responsibilities of the Head Chef, who is busy in implementing the
new improvement ideas.
The Head Chef, who is very busy, has given you the responsibility to identify the problem and
resolve the conflict.
a. Identify the linguistic and cultural differences in the communication styles of Mansour and
Mario.
The Head Chef very busy to identify the problem and resolve the conflict and Mansour and
Mario have had a heated argument. Both of them are dissatisfied with the situation and
one or both of them might quit the job.
Assessor Declaration:
I declare that I have conducted a fair, valid, reliable and flexible assessment with this
student, and I have provided appropriate feedback.
Assessor Name:
• Participate in a role play with Mansour and Mario to resolve their conflict. Use your
understanding of the conflict you have described in this task above.
• You must use a step-by-step process to resolve conflict.
• Your assessor will organise for two volunteers to play the roles of Mario and Mansour brief
them about the situation.

below. You must read the performance criteria carefully.
• After the conflict resolution meeting, ask your supervisor (the Owner played by your
assessor) for feedback on how you handled the conflict resolution procedure.
• Your assessor will provide you with one or two points or suggestions.

advice.
