You will be collecting evidence for this unit in a Project Portfolio. The steps you need to take are outlined below. Before you begin, complete page 4 of your Project Portfolio. Identify and plan for innovation If using the case study in a classroom or online situation, choose a group of at least three students who will act as your work team throughout the project. Open the Simulation pack, read through the case study and select which student will take on which roles within the team. Work through Section 1 of your Project Portfolio. As part of this step, you will need to: Outline the team and what the objectives of the team are Outline ways to find out the what the team needs to be innovative, subject to legislation, policies and procedures Outline current ways of working and reasons why this may or may not be working Identify opportunities for innovation and plan for better ways of working.

When you have completed Section 1 of your portfolio, submit to your assessor for review and feedback before moving onto the next activity step. Team collaboration and delegating responsibility In a group round-table style discussion within your team, use your Project Portfolio to outline the tasks that would support innovation in your work area. As a team: identify the team’s strengths and abilities brainstorm some ground rules for the team discuss your motivations and what you think the rewards should be for successfully implementing the innovative ideas that the team came up with. Your assessor will be looking to see that you can: model open and respectful communications demonstrate and role model behaviour that supports innovation within the team share information, knowledge and experiences contribute to the make-up and rules of the team demonstrate effective communication skills including: Speaking clearly and concisely Using non-verbal communication to assist with understanding Asking questions to identify required information Responding to questions as required Using active listening techniques to confirm understanding build rapport with your team through use of effective communication skills. i This can either be viewed in person by your assessor or you may like to video record the session for your assessor to watch later.

After the meeting, in the role of team leader, compose an email where you delegate responsibilities to your team members based on the opportunities for innovation that were identified by the team in the meeting. Attach this to Section 2 of your Project Portfolio. Scheduling activities and testing ideas After the round table discussion, have another team meeting to discuss the responsibilities of each team member, making sure it is suited to team strengths and abilities and that consensus is reached. As a team, estimate and schedule the time needed for each team member to complete their assigned tasks relating to the innovation, during a typical work week. Each student should create their own schedule that reflects a typical week at work. Decide how much time should be allocated to thinking, challenging and collaboration as a team. Students should add this to their personal schedule. Have a breakout session with one other member of the team (10 minutes per person). At the end of the session, swap roles and repeat the tasks below: challenge at least one of your team member’s ideas come up with a plan to test your ideas before they are implemented At the end of the breakout sessions, come together as a team and discuss and explore all of your innovation ideas to come up with your own final list of ideas that can be implemented.

Setting criteria to evaluate innovation Based on your planning and the discussions with your team members, it’s now up to you and your team to implement your ideas. This could include the development of something for the business that helps to achieve a team or organisational goal or implementing ideas based on the case study. Use Section 3 of your Project Portfolio to develop criteria to evaluate innovation based on the information you learned during the round table discussion and meeting. You will develop a set of tasks to be implemented and the criteria for evaluating whether it was implemented successfully. You will complete this activity on your own and not in discussion with your team members. Seek feedback and present a response In a group with your selected team, you will seek feedback from stakeholders and respond to it. If you are using the case study, your assessor will assume the role of the stakeholder. Reflect on the implemented innovation ideas Ask for feedback from relevant stakeholders and take notes. Transfer this information to Section 3 of your Project Portfolio. Obtain feedback from your team members Take time to reflect on the feedback you were given.
