INTRODUCTION
Personal and professional development facilitates in the enhancement and improvement of an
individual's abilities to acquire new and innovative learning opportunities for career growth. It is
very valuable for an individual to concentrate on his/her personal as well as professional
development so as to determine the goals and desires and to accomplish the same in the future
run (Alvarez and Schultz, 2019). The report encompasses my career journey and my experience
drawn from the same. It also discusses my current skill set and the action plans or personal
development plan or strategies that will be adopted by me in order to enhance the same and tap
new opportunities as well in the near future.
Self reflection of my working experience
Work experience can be considered to be a positive asset for an individual which helps the same
in influencing the personality and mindset of an individual in a positive manner. Experiences
allows an individual to learn something beyond and above the basic level of education. It
facilitates an individual in examination their competence through the application of their
knowledge in the practical conditions of the respective work place. Nowadays, business
organisations wants to recruit individuals who are experiences in their particular field of job and
are skills enough to take all the responsibilities associated with the same. Thus, it becomes very
essential for students to apply for internships and job early in their careers so as to gain adequate
experience so as increase their chances of capitalisation of good working opportunity in the
business environment. I believe that in order to achieve greater height in the career it very
essential that an individual grabs the opportunity of gaining good experience. I have worked in
several organisations at different positions which has provide assistance to me in enhancing my
career graph. At my first job, I was assigned the role of a site supervisor. As a site supervisor I
was responsible for supervising and monitoring the operations carried out by the workers of the
organisation. I also had to supervise the work activities of the sub contractors so as to
communicate the details related to the same to the further concerned management. In was
expected to conduct the inductions at the sites and to brief the workers about the necessary
information related to their operations. I had to make sure that safe working conditions are
regulating at the site and all the safety measures are taken by the worker so as to reduce the
possibilities of any hazardous danger at the site. I needed to determine that the rules and

regulations set by the organisation in regard of the work provided to the workers is taken into
consideration. This job role helped to learn and acquire necessary insights about the management
and communication. My management skill got enhanced while due to this job position. I was
able to interact and communicate in a better manner in comparison to how I used to
communicate earlier. This job helped me to become more confident and outspoken as well. My
experience as site supervisor was brilliant and it helped me to learn so many tactics in relation
which how to manage people at work and hope to get the work done effectively as well as
efficiently. Working at this position also facilitated in raising my degree of productivity. I have
also worked as sweeper driver and was employed by the street department so as to make sure
that proper cleanliness and hygiene is maintained at the streets in order to reduce and
furthermore eliminate the chances of blockage or accidents. I was responsible for driving a street
cleaning vehicle which in turn assisted in removing unnecessary trash from the streets. I was
expected to report containment sections of the city and to ensure that they are clean and non
contaminated. My experience as a sweeper driver was very good as I learned the value of
hygienic surroundings. This specific job position of sweeper driver helped me in enhancement of
my driving skills as well. After this job, I applied for the job role of a heavy goods vehicle driver
at Driver hire slough and I got selected in the same. Being a HGV driver is not an easy task as an
individual needs to bear major risks and is entitled to big responsibilities. At this position, I was
required to effectively operate vehicles up to or over 7 tonnes such as heavy trucks, tanks, lorries
etc. (Anjum, 2020). I was responsible for reading maps and locations in order to reach the
destination effectively. I had to inspect the vehicles before transporting the lined up materials in
the same and needed to make sure that the goods and materials are safe and secured. Loading and
unloading of the concerned goods was also my duty. Being a HGV driver helped me to be be
more assertive and attentive in my work. It increased my alertness as well as concentration. My
experience at this job was very exhilarating as I had to travel to different places and destinations.
I loved travelling and this is one of the reason that I was very satisfied, content and happy when
I was performing my duties and responsibilities towards this job.
In the present time, I am working as a HGV driver only but at different organisation i.e. DHL
SLOUGH. My current organisation has a very good working environment and I am very happy
with working in the same. My earlier job of working as HGL driver at Hire Slough helped me to
gain relevant experience in this industry and also assisted me in grabbing my current job

position. My experience of working as HGV driver is very exciting and every day is like a new
opportunity for me to experience new places and people.
All of the above mentioned working experiences have helped me to be who I am today. These
experiences have helped me to take better decisions and has facilitated me to be more flexible in
order to adapt to the dynamic changes of the environment (Bertelli, 2017). I have gained a lot of
industry insights while working at various different job positions and the same has equipped me
with the appropriate skills and competencies.
Personal Development Planning
Personal Development plan enables an individual to identify and determine where an individual
currently stands and the development planning and strategies that can be adopted by the same in
order to raise the individual's current standing (Butina, 2018). It acts as a framework that guides
the actions of an individual during a time phrase so as to achieve the goals and aspirations set by
the same. It also helps the individuals in order to understand their existing skills and to focus on
the skills that needs to be developed in the future so as to facilitate in the future career of an
individual. It provides a systematic brief about the ways an individual needs to operate in order
to achieve the desired results in the limited time duration assigned to the completion of the goals
and objectives formulated by an individual. I am a very honest and hard working person who
believing in providing my best potential in order to effectively complete the task assigned to me.
PDP is a quintessential element that can help in further optimization for my current
skills(Caiman, 2018). The personal development plan adopted by me in order to raise my
standard of performance and productivity is as follows :-
