Change in individual tasks
Greetings again to PR 393 Reflective Blog2 followers.
Today is the first day of my fifth week on my placement. As a vigilant person I have noticed some kind of change on my tasks every time and then. As I mentioned in the first post, I was first assigned as a communication watchdog with a purpose to read incoming emails and forward them to the concerned staff to respond.
As time goes on my tasks changed to a more responsible series of activities. The first test of change came as a task to send emails on behalf of the Chief Operating Officer inviting the organization's publics to a seminar. This task lead to another task that involved updating the organization's blog and Facebook with ongoing activities. Then I had to read incoming emails and observe email replies and also respond to blog comments and Facebook posts. I became a media monitor.
Since I noticed the change on my working environment I thought about the root or cause or main reason of this change. In my mind there was various dubious reasons. The first one was trust, was it because of trust and individual confidence on coursework or was it stages planned to be part of the placement?
Now I want to know if any of you out there have witnessed the change on tasks in your working environment, if so what is the main reason behind such a change?
Besides, my placement is fantastic. I am becoming used to the staff and as to media monitoring, it is the best task so far because I get to know the organization better through the information given by the publics and I stand a better chance to advice and make suggestions on required developments and improvements based on the information from the publics.
Thank you for reading.
