1PEOPLE MANAGEMENT
Introduction
In the following paper, I would discuss about the issues in the people management that
would help me for my personal and professional development. Throughout my life, I have
learned the fact that I have to learn new things to cope up with the changing environment in both
personal and professional development areas. Therefore, people management is one of them and
I have to learn the art of people management through self-assessment, assessment of my peers
and analyzing the feedbacks of tutors to make better progress. It is probably one of the most
difficult tasks for the managers to conduct.1 It is because the managers have to deal with people
belonging to different mentalities and approaches. Therefore, I also have to learn the skills and
make positive approach towards contributing to my professional and personal development. I
believe self-assessment is one of the most difficult factors to understand my capabilities and
weaknesses.
Idea of the people management practice
It is very difficult to select a proper career and grow in that particular career without any
difficulties. The learning methods in the complicated business environment are very much
difficult. I have realized the fact that I can only succeed in my personal life when I will be keen
about learning new things. So, it is quite sure that I will like to increase my personal skills to be
successful in the professional career as well. Through a proper investigation about my
capabilities, I have learned that I have not been able to make the proper communication about
my desires and needs with my near ones. This reflects that I am very much introvert and keep my

feelings inside my mind only.2 There are some other personal attributes that I have learned about.
These are adaptability to difficult situations, creativity, relying on my own capabilities with
utmost confidence and flexibility. Besides being crucial in the personal development, these
things are also very much essential in my professional development as well.
Another thing that I must learn in this scenario is that of being able to analyzing difficult
things very critically. Through this manner, I will be able to identify the important matters that
will be helpful for me. In order to develop my skills in the professional atmosphere, I will have
to keep all the necessary information about the overall practices of the organization and its
policies. The aims of the organization should be clearly identified as well. This will give me a
better viewpoint to judge the things critically. From my self-assessment, I have learned that I can
understand the difficult things in the organizational practices very easily but I am unable to
communicate them effectively with my seniors and peers. This creates a gap there. I understand
that this gap will create several problems in the future. This is why I think I have to attnd
professional classes to improve my communication skills. I am not able to write effective emails
to my seniors at the need of the hour.
Concept of the reflective practice
Next follows my difficulty in handling people. When I will take the charge as the
manager of a company, I will have to be able to communicate very smoothly with my men. This
is the issue I have been facing lately. I have observed that I begin to tremble when I have to
convince my juniors to complete a work on an urgent basis. I tend to think I am putting much
