CELPIP Practice Reading: Reading Correspondence ID: #61079 Medium Leading Next Month's Team Meeting

Read the following message.

Dear Morgan,

I would like you to lead next month's team-learning session. The newer supervisors have asked for practical examples of how experienced managers handle mistakes. Your account of revising a project after listening to your team would be particularly useful.

Please choose one example in which you changed your own approach. The purpose is not to present a flawless success story, but to show that acknowledging uncertainty can make it easier for others to ask questions. You need not discuss a confidential client or name the colleague who first raised the concern.

The session is on Tuesday, 8 June, from nine to ten. Allow fifteen minutes for your example, then let small groups discuss how they would respond to a similar situation. We will use the final ten minutes to collect suggestions for future sessions. Please do not prepare a long slide presentation; one page describing the situation will be enough.

I will email that page to participants in advance. Could you send it by Thursday? Our accessibility coordinator will check the formatting before I distribute it.

Attendance is open to all supervisors, not just new staff. We will not record the discussion, because people should feel comfortable asking questions. I will circulate a short summary of the general ideas afterwards, without attributing personal examples to named speakers.

Best,
Jules

Dear Jules,

I will use the project where I revised my plan after the team raised a concern. I will describe my reasoning without identifying 7.

I understand that my example should take 8.

You will receive my one-page outline by 10.
