The main challenge in this simulation is addressing Tom’s poor communication habits, which are significantly affecting team collaboration and project timelines. Tom has missed 40% of status meetings in the last quarter, leading to misalignment on critical tasks and project delays. His handoff documents often lack detailed explanations, causing confusion and additional work for his teammates. Despite his exceptional technical skills, Tom’s communication issues need to be addressed to ensure the success of a high-stakes project for a major healthcare client, MedSecure.

In this simulation, you assume the role of Alex, the Team Lead at PrimeSoft. Your primary responsibility is to oversee project timelines and ensure effective team collaboration. You will interact with Tom, a Senior Software Developer, whose poor communication habits are impacting the team’s performance. Your mission is to address these issues, provide constructive feedback, and guide Tom towards improving his communication habits. You will prepare for the feedback session by reviewing Tom’s performance data, conduct the feedback session to address communication gaps, and provide actionable steps for improvement. Your goal is to ensure Tom understands the importance of effective communication and commits to improving his habits.

– Review Tom’s performance data to identify specific areas needing improvement.
– Conduct a constructive feedback session with Tom, addressing communication gaps and providing actionable steps for improvement.
– Monitor Tom’s progress in subsequent weeks to ensure increased attendance in meetings and improved quality of handoff documents.
