Situational

I start by finding out how much vacation time the worker used during the year. If the individual has used few vacation hours, I do not report the situation to my superiors, but will encourage the individual to remain at work during the week and consider using their vacation time during a less critical time for the company. If the individual has lied about being sick in the past to take time off work, I would refer the situation to the human resources department.

I usually ask for feedback about my ideas and take into account everyone's opinions prior to beginning a new project. When possible, I organize meetings with group members to discuss my plans and explain how the company will benefit after the project is successfully completed. Likewise, I make it clear to team members that policy changes can be made if they are dissatisfied after beginning a new project.

First, I would not expect that this would ever happen as I always review all project specs, time requirements, and deadlines prior to starting any new assignment to ensure my work is done on time, within budget, and that it meets all project specifications. If it ever were to occur, I would bring the issue to the attention of my superiors and ask for a realistic extension to make sure the project met all specifications. I would review my project planning process to see what went wrong, why the project was not done on time according to specs and take steps to make sure it never happened again.

I would evaluate why I disagreed with my supervisor and come up with a different way that I think the situation should be handled. I would then sit down with my supervisor -- in private -- and discuss the problem with him and how I think it should have been addressed.

Certainly not call the trainer out on it. I would try my best to understand what the trainer is saying, ask many questions to clarify any unclear parts about the session and compare notes with someone in the session afterwards. This way I could make sure that I understand what was being explained and discussing it afterwards would help reinforce the things I learned in the session.

First, I would determine if the decision is one that would benefit the company.

I would then assess if and how the decision would fit within the scope of the company's core values.

I would assess how a decision might negatively impact the company.
