Performance Reviews

"Since my last report, this employee has reached rock bottom.....and has started to dig."

"His men would follow him anywhere...but only out of morbid curiosity."

"This employee is really not so much of a 'has-been', but more of a definite 'won't be'."

"Works well when under constant supervision and cornered like a rat in a trap."

"He would be out of his depth in a car park puddle."

Rules:

(1) The boss is always right.
(2) When the boss is wrong, refer to rule 1.

1.Task One - Interpersonal Skills. 

Darren and Maureen started work on the same day doing the same job.  Darren became a popular and well respected member of the team, while Maureen was ridiculed and was often pelted with pieces of stale bread in the car park.  Darren was competent, polite and respectful to his colleagues; while Maureen was slow, aggressive and smelly.  When someone from the office had to be promoted to Office Manager, while Maureen hanged herself in the gents toilets.

Why do you think this was?

List five reasons why Maureen deserved to die. 

2.Task Two - Collecting and Sending Information. 
You are a PA in a large Engineering Company, while sitting in your office one morning you overheard the muffled conversation between your boss and a young female member of staff.  You catch only snatches of conversation, but you believe that your boss is having an affair with the young secretary. 
Cut letters out of your magazines and compose a poison pen letter threatening to tell his wife unless a large amount of cash is left in the cistern in the ladies toilet. 
3.Task Three - Working as part of a team. 
Sharon and Tracy worked in the same office as Derek.  Although Derek was good at his job, the women disliked him and were particularly vindictive, especially during lunchbreaks.  On one occasion Sharon tripped him up while Tracy set fire to his leg.  Finally Derek lost his temper and knee-capped them both in the coffee break. 
How could the situation have been resolved without resorting to firearms and hostage negotiators?
