Problem
At the beginning of April, Carl Robbins was hired at ABC, INC. as a new recruiter. He successfully hired several employees, even though he was fairly new at his job. This was his first recruitment effort that turned out quite well. After this, the Operations Supervisor, Monica Carrolls, tasked Carl to recruit 15 new employees to begin working at ABC in July. So Carl scheduled an orientation to take place for the 15 employees on June 15th. Monica contacted Carl around May 15th to ensure that the process to get the orientation started was underway and Carl assured her that the orientation would be ready in time. Carl started working on the task to set up the orientation around the end of May and soon realized he didn't have a room for the orientation to be held and the necessary paperwork was far from complete.

If Carl does not act fast or start communicating with his management, he may not be able to make the deadline.

However, that is not always the case as Carl has proved. It is important for the supervisor to help the employee get a feel for his/her job and while they can not do the job for them, they can certainly put them on the right path. It... [continues]
