- Question 2 choose 1 solution: What about your team members? How will your plan help them deal with the current situation? Option 1: I think the best thing I can do for them is offer encouragement and let them know that we're in this together. Also, it'll be crucial that I keep them focused on the task by going over our departmental processes. Protocol will keep things running smoothly. And that's good for the team and the company. Option 2: I'll continue to schedule overtime as needed. It's a good incentive for my team members that helps offset the long hours they're working. Option 3: I'm making allowance for a team member to take his allotted bereavement days. It's obviously important that he does, considering he lost his father. Other than that, I'm putting all new requests on hold. It may not go over well with some of the employees, but it's the smart thing to do at this point with all we have going on.
