Case: Management and Positive Reinforcement
Project 1
What things need to be taken into consideration when allocating work and drawing up work plans? Consider:
1. Goals and objectives
When we have to allocate work and draw up work plans, first of all, we need to figure out the goals and the objectives of the organization to ensure that the outcome would be achieved to the goals when allocating work. It is make sense that we cannot allocate work without knowing our goals and objectives. Identify short or long term goals and make sure that they are realistic and achievable. After we are considering the goals and objectives, we may need identifying and choosing between options. There may be a range of different options for achieving an agreed objective. The best of these options has then to be chosen. Therefore we should consider the goals before identifying or generating possible options, and then exploring the options and evaluating them.
2. Competence
When allocating work, the competencies and availability of staff must be considered so that work is allocated to those who are best equipped to do it. You must consider employees’ experience, skills, knowledge, understandings and workloads. You must consider checking their understanding and give support and opportunities to ask questions. When allocating work, the goals and objectives must be clearly defined so that employees can put them into action plans and achieve these goals. Managers and leaders must take into consideration, the interests of the staff members, their availability and the likely outcomes of involving specific employees.
3. Operational need
The execution of any plan will require resources. The resources like people, accommodation, equipment, materials, time and money are identified as necessary to enable department to carry out normal activities. In some simple plans it will be relatively easy to see where resources will be needed to complete the work within the planned time scales. In more complex work plans, when it is
