Berit – May 27 Meeting – Task #2
Brainstorm: Figuring out a second task took some thinking. My original idea was to create a shoutout form for guards to nominate other guards, but this was too similar to employee of the month nominations. I worked with Chloe and Jeff and decided that creating a guide to valuable and consistent nominations was a better choice.
After I realized that this improvement was a better idea than my original idea, I decided to create a new guide to help managers and leadership improve these nominations. Nominations like these can be very beneficial for an employee.
So, after I decided this was a better idea my second task was creating a step-by-step guide to improve the consistency and value of Employee of the Month nominations.
This started with expectations then continued with the process. The expectation part of the guide explains how often these nominations need to be as well as explaining that detail matters. It is very important to provide as many details as possible because these details will determine votes for this nomination.
Next came the process of the nomination form, this was specific to what needs to be done and how to fill out this form, which is kind of common sense, but we provided instruction is helpful too.
After these two sections, I completed my second task.
Action items:
- email Jeff completed guide
- announce to leadership this new and improved way of nominations
- explain how these are completed, every leadership member once a month
