I'll submit a time schedules with method statement honestly to let him understand that the task can't be finished on the deadline he gave. Then, request to him to add more assistants so we can deliver on time, or just simply ask for more time enough to finish the work...

Tell him that i’m going to try our best but it may not be possible for finish the work in the allotted time. Then they will extant the time or not? They can’t extend the time so, Making plan, sharing with team and getting ideas to finish the task on time with quality.

Assess the Task: Review the task thoroughly to understand its requirements, complexity, and the time it will likely take to complete. Identify Potential Challenges: Identify any potential obstacles or challenges that may prevent you from completing the task within the given deadline. Communicate Early: Approach your boss as soon as possible after receiving the assignment. It's essential to communicate early rather than waiting until the deadline is looming. Be Honest and Specific: Explain your concerns to your boss in a clear and honest manner. Clearly articulate why you believe the task cannot be completed within the given timeframe. Provide specific reasons such as the complexity of the task, lack of resources, or conflicting priorities. Propose Solutions: Instead of just stating the problem, offer potential solutions. This could include renegotiating the deadline, reallocating resources, or breaking the task into smaller, more manageable parts. Seek Clarification: If there's any ambiguity regarding the task or the deadline, seek clarification from your boss to ensure you fully understand what is expected of you. Document the Discussion: After the conversation with your boss, it's a good idea to document the discussion and any agreed-upon changes to the deadline or task requirements. This can help prevent misunderstandings later on.

Talk to your boss about the deadline, share your concerns, and propose a feasible timeline or alternative solutions.

If I'm assigned a task by my boss with a deadline that I believe is unrealistic to meet, I would take the following steps: Assess the Task: First, I would carefully review the task requirements, resources available, and the deadline provided by my boss. Evaluate Feasibility: Based on my assessment, if I determine that the task cannot be completed within the given timeframe due to factors such as complexity, workload, or resource constraints, I would acknowledge the challenge. Communicate with Transparency: I would approach my boss promptly and respectfully to discuss my concerns about the deadline. I would communicate openly and honestly, explaining the reasons why I believe meeting the deadline may not be feasible. Offer Solutions: While discussing the issue with my boss, I would propose alternative solutions or adjustments that could help address the situation. This could include renegotiating the deadline, reallocating resources, seeking assistance from colleagues, or modifying the scope of the task. Prioritize Tasks: If the task is part of a larger project or initiative, I would collaborate with my boss to prioritize tasks based on their importance and urgency. We would work together to identify critical aspects that need immediate attention and adjust deadlines accordingly. Document the Discussion: It's important to document the conversation with my boss, including any agreements reached or changes made to the original plan. This documentation serves as a reference point and helps ensure clarity and accountability moving forward. Follow Through: After discussing the issue with my boss and reaching a mutually acceptable solution, I would proceed with the task according to the revised plan. I would remain proactive in addressing any challenges that may arise and keep my boss informed of progress along the way. In summary, if I find myself in a situation where I believe a task cannot be completed within the given deadline, I would communicate transparently with my boss, offer alternative solutions, and collaborate to find a resolution that aligns with our goals and priorities.
