Hi expert plesse read the case study and answer the question below.
Thabile is the senior industrial psychologist at Gold for Ever (Pty) Ltd in Gauteng. Management has assigned her the job of developing an assessment centre to identify leadership potential for the first-line supervisors, with the aim of ensuring that more previously disadvantaged individuals are selected into the ranks of first-line supervisors. Thabile started off with a lot of enthusiasm and did a thorough analysis of the main tasks involved in the job of first line supervisor. She then used the Work Profiling System, a structured questionnaire published by SHL, to help her to identify the most important behavioural competencies required by first line supervisors for success in their jobs. So far so good! The problem, however, began when she started to develop simulations of the supervisor's job. What Thabile found was that the current supervisors would speak either an African language or Fanagalo to the mine workers, the great majority of whom were immigrant workers from other parts of Africa. The current supervisors were mostly Afrikaans speaking, though they used Afrikaans only during supervisors' meetings, started to develop simulations of the supervisor's job. What Thabile found was that the current supervisors would speak either an African language or Fanagalo to the mine workers, the great majority of whom were immigrant workers from other parts of Africa. The current supervisors were mostly Afrikaans speaking, though they used Afrikaans only during supervisors' meetings, and some of them battled to express themselves in English. To complicate matters even further, Thabile found that the top management of Gold for Ever (which was partly British-owned) was mostly English speaking. All of the documentation and reports to management were written in English by the supervisors. Thabile would like the assessment centre to be fair to all applicants for the position of first line supervisor, but at the same time to make sure that the best candidates are selected Questions 1. What would be your advice to Thabile with regard to the language and the culture of the prospective participants in the assessment centre? (maximum 250 words)
