Scenario
Matt
Matt (20 years) is an Educator in the preschool room. In addition to his normal duties Matt’s supervisor has asked him to tackle the indoor storeroom which has become quite a mess. The Supervisor suggested he could do this over several weeks only as time permitted.
Matt, eager to please, decides he will get the job done as quickly as possible. All week Matt has been going into the storeroom as soon as he finishes a task. At the end of the week the Supervisor pulls him aside. “Matt, I can see that you’ve been very diligent in tackling the storeroom but I did say to do it only as time permits. You’ve hardly spent any time with the children this week. You need to think about your priorities.”
Matt walks away feeling confused, after all he did get his other jobs done before going into the storeroom. The Supervisor reflects to herself that Matt, although keen, has no idea how to manage his workload and priorities.
How could the Supervisor have communicated more effectively?
What is your answer so far or What have you done so far as an attempt to solve this question?
supervisor should have had told to Matt that your first priority is to give proper time to children so that they learn, feel comfortable with you and become familiar with you . This store managing task is secondary .
