Complete the following activities.
Carefully read the following scenario.
You are the manager of a busy café within the Blue Healer Hotel and Spa. Apart from you and the owner, there is a full-time chef named Navneet, two sou chefs, two part-time kitchen porters and casual wait staff employed. The casual wait staff are from the local area and are mostly university students or high school students working part-time shifts. The team is tight knit and work well together. The casual wait staff visit the café socially sometimes and the culture is one of sharing and helping each other out when needed.
The café’s vision is to be the most popular café within the local region renown for it’s amazing local food and service and vibrant atmosphere. It’s mission is to grow the café and it’s popularity by strong leadership, sound communication and the provision of a clear strategic direction that ensures it’s a great place for staff to work; it provides food and beverages that the public wants with a focus on local produce and sustainable practices; and it becomes known for its vibe and atmosphere. Values listed in its Strategic Plan include: · Operating with trust and integrity with each other, as well as with employees and the community. · Customer focus through appreciation of interests and passion for food that is local, healthy and delicious and sustainably sourced. · Camaraderie through recognising the superior strength and efficiencies of good team work · Innovation through best practice and change · Openness and transparency in communicating with our employees, customers and the broader community. The organisation has adopted three key strategic goals is to improve local interest in the community and not just rely on the hotel guests for revenue, specifically to: · increase local traffic by 25% in the new upcoming financial year · develop and implement a “specials or loyalty” program to use as the basis of weekly advertising in the local area · provide entertainment to encourage people to stay longer. A key approach to achieve these will be to establish relationships with local talent to provide entertainment and increase advertising locally. The owner has asked you to develop a team work plan that will include a range of tasks and activities that the café’s staff can carry out over the next twelve months to achieve the key strategic goals and objectives. In order to develop a plan that will be enthusiastically adopted by the team, you are to conduct a meeting with the staff to inform them of the new key goals, and to workshop innovative ideas they may have that could help the business achieve them. With the participation of the staff, you are to translate their ideas into actions that they will then carry out. |
The meeting will provide an opportunity for all the café’s employees to contribute to the next stage of the business’s development. You will be collecting ideas about how the team can fulfil the business’s objectives.
You are expected to encourage all team members to be innovative and be constructive in their participation. Keep in mind that this unit’s focus is on teams working in an effective way, and you are being assessed on your ability to encourage and support your colleagues to do this. Review the case study information and write some notes on your plans for the meeting. You will know the other meeting participants, so structure the meeting in a way that is appropriate for these people (your classmates). Use appropriate language and social references, too. Write a statement of what the team’s purpose and long-term objectives are, to take to the meeting with you. This will be just your starting point, though, as these will have to be discussed and accepted by all the meeting’s participants. As well as leading the meeting, you will be taking notes, and writing up a report afterwards. Review the Team Work Plan Template to order the information you receive at the meeting. How do you want to document the meeting’s proceedings? With a white board, computer and projector, or butcher’s paper? Answer Activity 1 The purpose of the team is to mainly work towards achieving the key strategic objectives and goals. The long-term goals and objectives that will be considered in the meeting are given below: – To increase native traffic by around 25% in the next fiscal year – To implement and develop the “loyalty or specials” program for utilizing as the particular basis of weekly marketing in the native area. – Give entertainment for encouraging individuals for staying for a longer time.

The text of the email should be in grammatically correct English, written in an appropriate (polite and warm) style.
The email’s text should list the café’s three key strategic goals and invite the recipient to a meeting to discuss how the team can achieve these, in particular activities that can be conducted to assist in achieving these goals. It should summarise the goals of the meeting and its importance and encourage the team members to start thinking of activities appropriate for meeting the team’s goals, and to bring these to the meeting. Include the date, time, and place of the meeting in the email. Answer Activity 3 From – manager@cafe.au.in Date – 12th July, 20XX Subject – Giving information about the meeting Respected team members, This is to inform you all that we are conducting a meeting to discuss the ways to achieve the strategic objectives of our café and these objectives are given below: 1. Maximize the native traffic by around 25% in the upcoming fiscal year 2. Give entertainment for encouraging the individuals for staying longer 3.

Check that there is enough seating for all meeting participants. Every participant should be able to see the whiteboard, and the seating should be arranged to encourage a group discussion.
Ensure that all of the physical elements are functioning correctly before the meeting begins. Answer In the conference hall, there are around 10 tables, one desk for the host, a whiteboard in front of the team, a projector near the whiteboard is also there, and the seating arrangement is like that all the participants can easily engage in the meeting and can put their opinion and viewpoint. The entire physical components that are available in the meeting room are functioning accurately. |
Begin the meeting by welcoming the participants and giving a summary of the organisation’s goals and objectives, and how encouraging innovation in the workplace can support these.
Your next step is to establish, and document, the team’s purpose and long-term objectives and how these support the business’s goals and objectives. You are being asked here to roleplay a Team Leader, leading colleagues in thinking up new ways of doing things, but you are also a student, asking your student colleagues for new ideas and how they can be translated into actions. Your team members will all most probably have a favourite café. Bring this out at the meeting, getting them to look at their own motivations as to what they enjoy, and look at how this could be used to motivate others, as well as their experiences of events (music or social activities) that assisted in increasing interest and support of their favourite eatery. Also, be aware that the other students at the meeting will be conducting a meeting on the same topic within a short time of you conducting yours. So, try to establish your own meeting leadership style. It should be uniquely yours, and effective. Be conscious that you will be modelling effective meeting leadership throughout the meeting. You should consciously behave as a role model for your colleagues, behaving in a way that encourages team excellence. Even though you may think that you know what the business should do, being a leader in this meeting means that you are responsible for engaging and motivating the other meeting participants, leading them in collaboration. Not leading them by telling them what to do. When you have conducted the preliminaries, open the meeting up to ideas that the participants have brought with them. Document the brainstorm on the whiteboard. Discuss (and record) the ideas the participants give, asking the others for input, looking at it practically, working out what preparation would be necessary, material, personnel, whatever is relevant to carrying the idea to realisation. While encouraging the team members to find and develop ideas, you are expected to display the following leadership skills: · Act as a positive role model through your performance · Show support for, and commitment to, the business’s strategic goals · Interacting with team members in a positive and professional manner. · Encourage the team members to take responsibility for their own work. · Encourage the team members to develop innovative approaches to their work. · Model and encourage open and supportive communication within the team. · Share information from the wider business environment with the team as appropriate for the situation · Motivate the team members to achieve optimum performance. During the meeting, you are required to demonstrate effective communication skills including: · Speaking clearly and concisely · Using non-verbal communication to assist with understanding · Asking questions to identify required information · Responding to questions as required · Using active listening techniques to confirm understanding As you come to the meeting’s conclusion: · Summarise the ideas and activities to have come out of the meeting. · The summary should verify the team’s, and each team member’s, expectations, roles and responsibilities. · Tell the participants that you will lead and support them in meeting the outcomes. Finish the meeting by thanking the participants and telling them that you will collate the ideas that they have shared and the activities that they have selected to undertake into a team work plan. with each person’s roles and responsibilities clearly set out. Tell the participants when they can expect to have the plan. Give yourself a realistic but challenging time frame for this. Answer Meeting Manager – Good morning all! Team – Good morning sir! Manager – How are you all? Team – We are good, tell me about you? Manager – I am also fine. As you all know that our café is going well and we can offer good quality services to our consumers. But we have some goals and objectives to achieve in the upcoming year to increase our profit margin and for that, we need your support. As you all know that we have also made the strategic plan for the objectives, but for that, we need some relevant and innovative ideas from you guys so that we can consider your opinion and implement them into action. So, the main objective of our café is to develop our café and increase the customer rate by 25% in the next fiscal year. Team – Yes, sir you are right and we appreciate your thoughts. Manager – Yes, for this I have also set the long-duration objectives that you have to achieve and consider these objectives as your personal goals. Team – Okay sir, what are these goals? Manager – These are given below: 1. You have to improve your performance. 2. You have to achieve the sales target of 20%. 3. You have to increase the customer retention rate by 15% These are your goals and if you achieve these objectives in 4 months then this will help you to gain more incentives and assist you to achieve organizational goals. I am always there with you to support you any time whenever you need me. You just have to consult with me if you have any problems. I suggest you think of some innovative ideas and innovative ways of doing your work so that it can boost your morale in working activities. Team – Yes sir, we will think of new ideas and also focus on innovative thinking. Manager – Okay, I want to ask you all which is your favourite café and why? Team – Sir our favourite café is a hide-out café as there all the staff are given various innovative and adventurous tasks and if they complete those tasks, rewards are given to them in return. Manager – Okay then if you achieve the objectives effectively we will also give you rewards in return. Team – Okay sir, then we will put all our efforts to achieve these objectives.

This resulted in a regular morning tea outing for seniors and a whole new demographic of customers. You should single her out for a personal reward. |
Using the Internet, research both informal and formal staff reward and recognition schemes and make notes on what you find.
The following links will provide some examples. http://smallbusiness.chron.com/examples-employee-recognition-programs-10883.html https://www.cultureamp.com/blog/20-employee-recognition-ideas-that-work/ Choose and develop at least five examples that would be appropriate for your team in the case study. Answer Five examples that would be accurate for the team are given below: 1. Bonuses 2. Verbal appreciation 3. Written appreciation 4. Holiday trips 5. Celebrating birthdays or anniversaries These events and recognition increase the morale of teams and team members as they are appreciated for the hard work and efforts they put in to do their best to achieve the goals and objectives of the organization. |
