LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT
1. Draft copy of organisational development plan
Organisation developmental plan
Introduction
The strategic plan required for the organisational developmental plan is to attract the
customers about the different types of houses with a wide variety of designs. It also aims to
engage and develop the best staff so that communication and effective productivity can take
place.
The decision to include an organisational development plan is to ensure that resources
at the organisation are developed properly so that during expansion the boutique does not
suffer from lack of resources or infrastructure. The research that has been conducted includes
the collection of feedback from the manager and the employees of the organisation.
Context
Development of leadership capability: Leaders need to be capable enough so that the
team members can be inspired to continue providing a good performance.
Highly competitive employment market: Excessive number of competitors can
hamper the growth of Boutique Build as the techniques, clothes and prices will be put to
comparison among the market.
Gender balance: Balancing the number of male and female employees can be
challenging so that organisational ethics are not violated.
Skilled labour shortages: It is necessary to hire skilled labour so that development of
the organisation can take place without having to worry about lack of talents.

LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT
Level of education in the workforce: Every employee need to be well educated and
need to possess knowledge about the activities that are undertaken within the business.
Construction workforce research: Research on the employees is required so that the
company can be assured of the background of the employees and the skills.
