INDUSTRY CONSULTING PROJECT 4
1.0 Introduction
The purpose of this paper is to identify ways to enhance my employability via the development
of relevant as well as, documentable workplace competencies. This report discusses the brief
description of Saville Australia and Real Estate industry. It also demonstrates the overview of the
plan to respond to Assessment 2. This report also elaborates the Justification of plan for
Assessment 2.
A brief description of Saville Australia
Saville Australia is a leading international real estate service provider. It was developed in the
year of 1855. It has now more than 600 owned as well as, associate offices around the globe.
Moreover, Savills advises institutional, corporate as well as, private clients that seek for
acquiring, leasing, developing as well as, realizing the worth of prime commercial and residential
property in a key location of the world (Savills, 2019).
Description of the Real Estate industry
A booming residential property market provides supports to the operator in real estate service
industry over the previous five-year period. Between the 2013-14 and 2016-17, prices of housing
are strongly increasing despite unstable economic circumstances, supported through government
incentives as well as, declining interest rates. But, declining housing may transfer the rate as
well as, falling the prices over the past two years that is equalize of growth over the first half of
the five-year period. Along with this, the government has restricted property investment hence,
foreigners are contributing to declining expected revenue in the year of 2017-18, and 2018-19.
The commercial property market has performed moderately over the previous five years because
of volatile business confidence at the initiation of the period (IBIS world, 2018).
Overview of a plan to respond to Assessment 2

INDUSTRY CONSULTING PROJECT 5
At the start, I would take into consideration of theoretical approaches and models for assessment
2 such as Hofstede cultural dimensions by entailing both primary and secondary sources. It
would be beneficial for assessing the depth of information regarding an organization. Under this,
the Laureate Professional Competencies structure and Gallup Reports would be used for
assessing the company data (Nissen, 2017).
Under this assessment 2, some factors would be analyzed through Hofstede Cultural Dimensions
such as Power Distance Index, Collectivism vs. Individualism, Uncertainty Avoidance Index,
and Femininity vs. Masculinity, Short-Term vs. Long-Term Orientation and Restraint vs.
Indulgence as it would be beneficial for increasing the employability in future. Under this,
professional development, training with, succession planning program of Saville Australia would
be assessed by me. In end, I would like to assess the security at the workplace (Havranek, 2017).
Justification of plan for Assessment 2
This proposal would be beneficial to increase employability in the future. This plan would be
beneficial for addressing the Hofstede’s Cultural Dimensions framework and Gallup Report.
Since, Hofstede’s Cultural Dimensions framework is used for making a differentiation between
different cultures of the nation, the dimension of culture, as well as, their effects on the setting of
business. I would also assess my particular experience and capabilities, as well as, actions that
would increase my employability in the future. Under this, I would enhance my understanding
regarding diverse employees engaged in Saville Australia (Poulfelt, et. al., 2017). Along with
this, Gallup report is used for addressing my skills and competencies that could aid me to
increase my employability in real estate working environment
