indications provided by the speaker will possibly help in

Read the scenario.
You are working as the supervisor of the Bridge Hotel. It’s Mother’s Day and the
kitchen has been under pressure since the early breakfast service. As part of the
Bridge Hotel’s Mother’s Day promotion, the kitchen has been providing take away
service for families who prefer to stay at home and celebrate. Customers who
purchase take away can order from an ‘abbreviated’ menu (meaning they do not
have access to the full range of menu items as in-house diners) and the Bridge
Hotel will have delivery drivers send out the meals.
The busy lunch service is almost over and you are just about ready to breathe a
sigh of relief. One of the wait staff approaches you and hands you the phone. The
customer on the other end of the line is not happy and this is the second time they
have called today. They have asked to speak to the manager as no one else is able
to help them.
The role play will begin at this stage.
During this role play you must:
Evaluate options in regards to resolving the conflict and implement the best
solution.
At the end of the role play, you will need to complete the Complaints Register and
document your ideas for improvement.
You will also need to write an email to the customer and ask them to provide you
with feedback about the outcome. Ensure that this is written clearly, respectfully
and professionally.

Subject: Feedback
Dear Wait persons,
I am writing this email to inform you about the importance of feedback after the conflicts
conversation with the customers. Your input is very valuable to us as we work to improve our
performance. All hotel staff members should adhere to feedback on the plans and processes of the
hotel in order to enhance the system. A major issue for hotels will arise if a client becomes unwell
as a result of the bridge hotel's services. The hotels' reputations will be destroyed. All consumers
who provide feedback will be welcomed by us since it is valuable and significant to us.
Thanking You!

supervisor.
Supervisor: Hello! Mam. Would you like to express about your angriness?
Customer: Your wait person is misbehaving with me.
Supervisor: I am sorry for your trouble Madame. I would like to get more information
about this matter. Can you please elaborate?
Customer: I have asked the wait person two glass of orange juice and he brought
me 4 glass of lemon juice. I asked him to replace lemon juice with orange juice as I

member again.
Supervisor: At your ease mam. Thank you for understanding.
Customer: Okay thanks. Please serve it fast. As I am in hurry.
Supervisor: Sure mam. Thanks.
5. Reflection
Meet with your assessor once all role plays are complete. This is an opportunity to
reflect on your performance and how you felt you resolved the situations. Discuss
any improvements you would make to your own performance and whether you feel
that the solution was the most effective, based on the circumstances.
Discuss the causes of the conflicts that occurred and what you would do to make
sure these do not happen again. You can refer to your Complaint Register for this
part of the discussion.
Reflections:
After the part was finished, I learnt a lot of things that are incredibly significant and helpful. I've
developed the ability to handle lodging issues. If a guest complains about hotel service, the
supervisor should address the issue and must persuade the guest since it will help the hotel's
DIT_SITXCOM005_SAT_V1.0 Page 23 of 29
SITXCOM005 Manage conflict | Student Assessment Tasks
image. My ability to handle disagreements politely and effectively has greatly increased. The
methods used to handle the entire process were really good and efficient.
Customer discontent, staff disagreement, service and product issues, management, employee
attitudes, and other factors are the root of conflict in hotel management. Now, I can handle this kind
of disagreement with ease. I was able to communicate clearly.
Ensure that all your pieces of documentation are clear and complete. Submit:
