As there are lots of thingswhich are new to every individual as no one is perfect so the process of learning is keep ongoing. (Bjork & Boud, 2012).For learning in the context of personal as well as professional thepersons has to do certain things such as: SWOT AnalysisSTRENGTHA person must know about his or her strengthsthat what are the main strength of the personsand continue with their strengths. He shouldknow about the inner potential on which he canwork with his stuffs. WEAKNESSThe persons must also have the knowledgeabout their weakness and make some goals toremove those weaknesses. There should be aplan to overcome to those weaknesses and alterthe limitations.

It does not matterthat opportunity is smal or big. In everysituation person should be in the ready state. THREATThe persons must also check their threatswhich become barrier in the process ofdevelopment and make strategies to overcomethose barriers. Hurdles are everywhere but tocut out them a persson should have therequired skills and knowledge. The SWOT analysis must be done by the person on regular basis as it helps in development ofthe personal and professional skills of the persons. (Leeman, 2013)
Continuous professional development: It means the personal and professional growth of anindividual by learning continuously from the experiences and the events that take place duringthe course of time. Continuous development can be adopted by an individual, a team or by theorganization as a whole. Continuous learning means that the situations are not same always andwith change in time and situations, an individual learns new skills and knowledge which helps inadapting to various new situations and solving new problems in the organization. It also helps anindividual to adapt to the changed policies and procedures, to the new culture and innovationwith new technologies. This continuous learning will not only provide benefits to the learner butalso to the organization. Continuous professional development increses the adaptability as ineach situation, a person or an organisation should be there to learn and execute their work withcompeleteness. Leadership: Effective leadership is an important part of the lifelong learning in the organization.It helps an individual to learn that how people from different backgrounds and level can bebrought together to achieve a common objective. It also makes a person learn that how he couldinfluence people to make them work for the common goals of an individual and of organization.For example in an organisation people are working on different different designations but all theemployees do work for a single company and for a single objective that company wants toachieve. Good relationships: The companies are nowadays not limited to local operations but to theglobal operations which requires good relationships among different employees andorganisations which is also possible through good level of communication among people. Thisnot only maintains good relationships but also helps in performing the basic task in managementlike planning, organisation, controlling and managing people and operations. For this,communication skills should be taught to people in the organisation for long lasting developmentand learning of new skills and knowledge. Maintaining a good realtionship by an organisationinternally and externally, in both ways it should be remarkable. Employees should be satisfiedby the policies of company and also the client should be satisfied after getting a better service.Motivation: Motivation brings satisfaction among the employees from the job and they began tolearn for lifelong while performing in the jobs so that they can develop themselves personally
and professionally. For this, the employees should get motivation to work and developthemselves which will increase and enhance the efficiency of the employees and they will bemore productive for the business. Each organisation have to arrange some activities for therefreshment of the empoyees. The employees should have the friendly environment in theorganisation that they can work with no hasitation.Apprenticeship: apprenticeship is the system in which the new joiners and employees aretrained during the course of their jobs. This helps in setting up the knowledge and skills in theemployees and makes them capable to achieve the objectives of the organisation. It prepares thestudents for the lifelong learning in the organisations. The students or new employees learn thestrategies, skills and problem solving methods through this process of learning. A trainingprogram should be in the organisation to ensure the trainees to work with their abilities. Learningactivities must have the basic idea about the job description. The deep knowledge aboutorganisation can be useful for the employees. Self-Reflective LearningIt is the process which helps the persons in continuous learning in an effective way and with thehelp of this person learns new things which are necessary for the personal as well as for theprofessional development. (Bruijn & Graves, 2014). The person can learn more things from hispasts as it helps in knowing about the mistakes which was done in the past and it helps not tofollow those mistakes in future and keep on working on those mistakes so that in the future thosemistakes will become assets for the person. When person learn from his/ her experience it willfixed in the mind of the persons and it was not easy to forget those things in the future.Analysing the own background to make an idea about what is the best qualities in you, and howyou can show those qualities in your work. Councelling is the way by which the person can seeself reflection. To learn something it is so important to deal with your own limitations.
