Question

Lyle's weekly staff meetings have been poorly attended, and those who do attend are often

multi-tasking rather than paying attention. Using the cycle of inquiry, Lyle discovered that the
problem is the staff meeting time coincides with when weekly finance reports are due.
Read the following possible courses of action and decide which is the BEST way for Lyle to handle the
situation and which is the WORST way for him to handle the situation.

1. Inform the staff that his meeting is higher priority than the finance department's reports.
2. Move the staff meeting time to after the weekly reports are due and see if attendance and
focus improve.
3. Cancel the staff meetings so the team can focus on completing their finance reports.
4. Allow the staff to continue multi-tasking so that they can attend his meeting and get the
finance reports done.

Answer 1

2 is the best

4 is the worst

Step-by-step explanation:

2 is the best because it is getting the reports done with so the meetings and the reports do not clash and they don't have to multitask. 4 is the worst because they continue to do what is not working for them.
