Introduction

leader in the business environment. The report highlights personal reflection on the leadership
development plan for the coming 12 months so as to improve my employability skills at the
workplace and in the society. The future personal reflection plan is developed for one is
discussed along with the previous 12 months development plan already used to attain success.
Further, transformation can be defined as the change in the existing business for improvement
and also to reduce the challenges. For a person to become effective in the target market, it is
important for them to incorporate change in their behavior and grow as well. The personal
change is change to make yourself better to face competition and upgrade the talent Business
change is change in present system, process, people, and technology for achieving the
measurable improvements and to face the challenges and for the success of an organization. In
this case I will share what was my experience form one job position to another job position
(Atmojo 2015). This will enhance the skills and increase the employability in the environment.
Further, section two of the report elaborate the nature of the organizational culture, leadership,
behavior and structure with respect to change in the business environment.
PDP (Performance development planning)
In the previous years I was working as an assistant manager in the company Genesis Housing
which provide the housing facilities to the people who are in need. And now I have started
working as a Fleet Manager in the business environment. My job responsibility as a fleet
manager is to purchase and maintain the delivery of vehicles, decide leasing of vehicles,
maximizing profits from developing efficiency from drivers and by cutting costs as well and
lastly increasing fuel efficiency etc. The change in the job position is not easy task it takes a time
to accept the new changes (Noe, et. al., 2017).
I was studying in college doing my MBA when I received placement in this company as an
assistant manager. I was really excited when I got to know that Genesis has offered me a job of
assistant manager. I started my on the job training where I got to learn about many new concepts
and this training also provided me better knowledge about my profile and the job role I have to
perform. Company is the place where we meet different types of people and share their different
ideas to perform their work that subsequently create a dispute in the organization that would
2

affect the working and goal of company. The role of assistant manager differs from organization
to organization. My job responsibilities as an assistant manager in Genesis are mentioned below:
 Problem solving
 To schedule the employees
 To give training to new employees
 To guide the employees
 To solve the customers problems
During my course of action as an assistant manager, I got in touch with an employee who was
dissatisfied from the company as he was living far away from the company due to which he had
to travel more than others were (Baloh, Zhu, and Ward 2018). Below mentioned are his actions
in the business:
 The lack of interest in working
 There was no scope of motivation
 He got frustrated by his job
 The daily expense of traveling
 He could not devote himself to work
These are the problem that is arising which also affects the organization goals which need to be
achieved by organization. The company has three more branches branch and he was working in
the third branch from where he needs to travel for a long distance. I asked him to shift at nearest
branch which will eliminate all the problems or the issues he needs to face daily and due to
which he did not pay attention to his job and goal of organization (Bejinariu, et. al., 2017). After
the 12 months I got promoted to new and my current job profile that is a fleet manager in the
company.
I think that changes in the organization always comes up with fear for the employees as they that
something is going to be changed and they have to accept it whether they like it or not. My role
as a fleet manager was to monitor all the vehicles that were around 850 as a fleet manager the
responsibilities which includes the monitor all the fleet logistics and I need to monitor all the
activities related cost incurred by the vehicles from wear to tear.

Theories of learning
Learning means to endure the changes from your experience this simply means that what we
learn that we became it sets to our permanent behavior. The learning theories are grouped into
three categories:

Source:
 Conditioning theory
According to Russian physiologist Pavlov behavior of people at workplace environment is learnt
by the repetitive action between response and stimulus, it is a classical theory based on such
assumptions that through the interaction with the environment we can develop learning .Through
that we can develop emotion, feelings, thoughts shaped in and from the environment.
The customers can learn through the continuous interaction with company environment so to
develop the trust and knowledge for company and to reduce the risk. It that the consumers learn
by themselves and react to the particular brand.
o Brand knowledge
o To create knowledge for self
o The learning of consumption (Salman, and Broten 2017)
 Cognitive theory
According to Edward Tolman, individuals learn or act on their belief, thoughts, their attitude, and
their feelings and not just respond to the stimuli to achieve the goal. In this theory the employee
learns and examines all about the external environment as well as internal environment through
their assumptions, examination and knowledge.
