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.

Similarly, Jack was never shy about telling his managers about store problems so that they, too, got some feedback on where they stood. This informal feedback notwithstanding, Jennifer believes that a more formal appraisal approach…arrow_forwardQuestion 15 kk .Whether you believe a one-page website is the best option for your particular website you are building in the course.
