You were recently hired by the finance department. You have training and experience in finance, but you also have
an advanced degree in communications.
You enjoy both, but would love the opportunity to combine them together
at some point. During this week's team meeting, you hear of a project that you feel is directly applicable to your
unique experience and education. However, your supervisor assigned that project to a coworker and asked you to
work on a more conventional finance task.
What would you do?
Approach your coworker and offer your knowledge and experience. Let them know you are
willing to help them on the project if they wants it.
Approach your supervisor to let them know that you feel your skill set is more suited for the non-
conventional task and you are being underutilized on the finance task.
<
Complete your conventional finance task as quickly and accurately as you can. Then, ask If you
can be assigned to the other project.
Work on the project you were assigned. Recognize that your supervisor is likely trying to
familiarize you with the department by working on the finance task and you should trust their
guidance.
Talk to your supervisor and offer to work on both tasks. You don't mind putting in extra time to
do something you enjoy and you'll provide value to both projects.

The best thing to do in this case is to recognize that your supervisor is likely trying to familiarize you with the department by working on the finance task and you should trust their guidance.

It should be noted that in an organization, it's important for one to listen to one's supervisor. Therefore, the person should not approach the supervisor to let him know that his or her skill set is more suited for the non-conventional task.

The opinion of the supervisor should be respected. It's important to recognize that the supervisor wants to familiarize the employee with the department.
