discretionary

Your Role• You will be expected to manage existing
systems, monitor and review them and occasionally, set up new systems.

Identifying Requirements and Problems
Your job as a manager is to constantly identify if something can be done better, faster or at less cost. How can you do this?
Cut out unnecessary stepsAvoid duplication of effortReduce time to accomplish tasksAvoid workplace accidentsReduce cost by not using so many materialsEtc.Examples?

Steps to establish S & P requirements and identify problems:
1. Clarify the purpose of the work
i. What is the purpose of the S or P? eg. Set up the restaurant for breakfast.
ii. What are your objectives? – eg. Two staff to do this in half an hour.
iii. What standards do you want to set? Eg. Table setting, distance between, etc.

2. Personal Feedback – identify requirements and problems by
‘walking the job’• Observe but beware of being ‘too
familiar’ with the workplace to see the problems.
• Ask your staff– ‘Lead and manage people’ – (good
communication skills)
Important: identify the real problem or issue otherwise your solution will not work!

3. Create an Environment of Continuous Improvement
• Engage in a never-ending search for improved quality, faster response, lower costs, etc. – Be strict, but not to the detriment of your
development ! – Get your staff to be part of the process –
instil pride and understanding – tell them ‘WHY’ and the benefits for them, the customers and the org.
