Nursing school conflict question:
I got a bad grade on this assignment. The question was:
A director at your place of employment has gone to your manager with an accusation that is untrue. The director thinks that your attitude at a recent meeting was unprofessional and has emailed several people in your organization stating that you are not on board with the new procedures. You recall asking questions to clarify the new procedure, but did not think you were appearing unprofessional. You left the meeting feeling that your questions were completely answered and were eager to start the new procedure. A few days later, your direct manager called you into the office to tell you what this director was saying and showed you some emails between several managers about your "attitude". What would you do and why?
I stated that I would ask for a meeting with the director and apologize. this is a manager where I work, and I don't want to be known as a troublemaker.
I got a D with the explanation "content based"
I really cant see going to HR when THEY didn't go to HR, they went to a direct manager. I guess I could have said that I would then make posters etc for the new procedure to "prove" that I am onboard.
