INTRODUCTION
Developing Personal and management skills is very important as this describe that
skill which help organisation to achieve specific task in order to achieve goals in proper
manner. The management skills include problem solving, decision making, communication,
analytical, leadership skills and many more which is too adopted when planning and
implementing the objectives in systematic manner. In this report, there is reflection where it
has to identify the management skill and leadership skill with using different types of model
and with the help of reflection there is personal development plan (PDP) which facilitates to
increase level of effective management and leadership. In second part, John Lewis
Partnership is taken into consideration for following transferable skills by using relevant
theory and model as there are different skills in transferable skill which help organisation to
achieve their task in proper time. These help both employees and managers to adopt these
types of strategy so that they can effectively implement skills in organisation.
MAIN BODY
TASK 1
Reflect the management and leadership skill by using model and develop a personal
development plan to increase level of effective leadership and management
The management and leadership skill is very important as it help to increase level of
effectiveness. The role of management is planning, organizing, staffing, directing and
controlling which help them to achieve business objectives easily whereas role of leader is to
inspire and influence employees to give them path so they can perform accordingly
(Armstrong, 2019).So, that I understand that skills of management and leadership is
important to accomplish the success in organisation. As I analysed that every organisation
focus on knowledge by implementing the process. To monitor employees they have develop a
department of learning and development to maintain learning management. There are various
models which are developed by many experts to define the skills of management and
leadership. The models include Gibbs model of reflection, Cottrell’s reflective practice,
Kolb’s experiential learning theory and Rolfe’s reflective model. With the help of this model

I can easily identify which skills are strong and weak. According to me Gibbs model of
reflection and Kolb’s experiential learning theory is common theory used to identify and
monitor skills of learning and management in order to enhance effective management and
leadership (Bell, 2018).
Gibbs model of reflection
In organisation, many people analyse that they can better learn from their experience
as if they do not reflect experience then they decide what they have to so this become
difficult for them to learn in future (Bennett, Meyer and Eikelboom, 2019). In this reflection I
have seen that this model is important as it help me to analyse in which skill I am good and
which skills is weak so that I can improve my management and learning skill. In this there are
six stages such as description, feeling, evaluation, conclusion and action. The first stage is
description where it is learned about particular situation where we understand and focus on
information available to us and later on after some stages we conclude to that situation after
using management and leadership skills. The second stage is feeling which we talk about
what is the feeling during the experience.
The third stage is evaluation where we learn that what is good or bad at this level as it
is understood that I have to improve my coaching and communication skills. The fourth stage
is conclusion where I have learned that what we can do different in order to improve skills.
The last stage is action where we have to adopt these skills in order for effective leadership
and management skills.
