TASK 1
P1 Devise project aims and objectives for chosen scenario.
Overview of Sainsbury
Sainsbury is the second largest chain of supermarket which was founded in 1869 by
John James Sainsbury. The headquarter in London, England, UK. This is retail sector
organization that offers range of products and services that influence number of customers and

management strategies.
Project Questions
 What is the concept of talent management strategies in context to Sainsbury?
 What talent management strategies used by Sainsbury to attract and retain employees for
long run? What challenges or problems faced by company while implementing talent management
strategies at their workplace?
Literature Review
The concept of talent management strategies in Sainsbury.
As per view point of Paadi (2019), A process of identifying needs, recruiting, selecting,
directing and getting the work done from employees is talent management. A HR management is
responsible for all functions and talent management strategy as it identify the vacant position and
make efforts to fill them by selecting the best employees. Talent management strategy is
consider as plan of action which use by organisation to optimise employee performance. This is
main function for each organization to focus on talent management strategies as it attracts large
number of employees and developing their skills by providing them training and educational
programme. In relation to Sainsbury, a leadership process that enables the company to identify
2

and manage employees competencies and skills totality in order to ensuring business success is
defined as talent managing strategy. The management should be focuses on talent management
strategy and its process as it help to attaining the business goals by getting work done from
employees. This is important for each organization to have talent management as it brings the
skilled staff who works in the organization by using their skills and talent in expectation of
accomplishing personal as well as professional goals. This also helps to increase the productivity
and profitability as employees works effectively.
Talent management strategies used by Sainsbury to attract and retain employees for long run?
According to Fan (2019), strategies in relation to recruitment and retaining employees are
important as it supports employees to perform their roles and responsibilities effectively. If
strategies are followed properly then it will be opportunity to grow their business. The strategies
of talent management which used by Sainsbury are recruiting talented staff, recognising to
organization culture, placing right employees at right place, providing compensation and
benefits, motivating employees, and giving rewards for their well performance which can help to
influence the number of employees and increase the business productivity. By recruiting skilled
employees it become easy for organization to attain their goals and objectives. Motivation and
rewards are effective strategies which use by management to attracts and retain the employees
for long period of time as they feel satisfied and happy to work here after receiving rewards.
The challenges or problems faced by company while implementing talent management
strategies at their workplace?
As per view point of Hill (2019), problems arises at the workplace due to adopting talent
management strategies are conflicts between employees, tightening talent market, lack of
leadership, lower organizational productivity and profitability. If company does not follows any
regulations and not providing training to employees then productivity will be decrease. In
relation to Sainsbury, employer face lower productivity, lack of leadership, feeling pressure, high
employee turn over and competitor that affects the business negatively. As employer does not
provide training to their staff and introduces new changes that affected the organization
negatively and reduced the business performance. The management should use the strategies by
sharing with employees and motivating them that can help to retain for long period.

P2 Produce a project management plan that covers aspects of time, quality, scope, cost, risk,
communication and resources.
Project management plan is considered as formal document or paper in which all
explanation about project is mentioned as it states how project going to be carried out. The
project management should be analysis all function and activities which are important to
complete the research. A project plan may involve scope, goals, timeline, budget, and objectives
of the particular study that can help to increase the skills and abilities to handle the problems. In
other words, a project plan is mainly uses to regulate and operate the business functions and
attaining the competitive advantages. To complete any project there is need to focus on different
aspects such as:
Cost of the project: This can be explained as process of estimating, budgeting,
managing and controlling the cost of particular project which can help to develop the
organizational performance. To start and running any activity cost is needed to analysis which
used to be done by management by preparing the budget. In other words, project cost
management is the process of estimating, budgeting, and controlling the cost throughout the
project life cycle, with the object of keeping expenditure in approved budget (Madan and Madan,
2019). The researcher has prepared the cost of their project in relation to talent management that
is described below:
Activities Estimated costs
Project management fees £500
Analysing and survey for specific topic £300
Conducting interview and selecting best talent £400
Assessment of information and data £200
Using the instrument for survey £100
Transportation cost £500
Miscellaneous £500
Total £2500
Scope of project - The scope of the current project in relation to talent management is
greater as it develop the understanding and knowledge in particular field. In this, management
contribute by conducting research and gathering the informations. This research will help to
know about talent management and its importance that can be used to develop the business
4

productivity. By working in this project, individual develop their own skills and abilities to work
properly (Khan and et.al., 2019).
Time scale - This refers as time period which use by individual to complete any task.
This is important for all to focus on time aspects and manage the each activities. In other words,
time scale is the ability to plan and organise the time spent on activities in a day. This is
important for each person to understand the task and give their efforts to complete it correctly.
The researcher has explained that managing and retaining talent management task will be done in
4 month that would develop business performance.
Quality – Quality matters a lot for each person as it supports to make the right decision
regarding particular task. This is important for individual to analyse the quality and bring the
changes in their performance. The project manager in relation to talent management project will
focus on quality by researching current market that can help to develop the business
performance. The researcher has decided to use primary and secondary method of data collection
that can help to manage project and complete it effectively (Atrizka and et.al., 2020).
Communication - To working on project and completing any task there is need to have
clear communication as it helps to develop the each activity. Different tools and technique uses
by individual that can help to share thoughts and ideas for managing good performance. To
understand the task of talent management and strategies researcher will use phone calls, video
call, messaging, and others that can help to develop understandings (Srihandayani and Kusnendi,
2020).
Risk - This can be explained as uncertain aspects or uncertainty that can happen any
time and affected the organizational performance. This is needed for everyone to focus on task
and evaluate risk which arose while working. It has seen that profitability and productivity of
organization can be reduce in case of risk identified by management. This activity is use by
researcher to analyse the risk which is involved with project and bring the solution that can help
to maintain the sustainability (Akter and et.al., 2019).
P3 Produce a work breakdown structure and Gantt chart to provide time frames and stages for
completion.
Work breakdown structure – This can be explained as simple framework which use in
project management for the purpose of completing a complex, multi step project. As the name
suggest in work break down structure all longer activities will be divided in to smaller as it can
5

be complete effectively. In other words, WBS is the way of dividing and conquering larger
projects for getting task done with faster and more efficiently. Before breaking any task there is
need to know the scope by involving all share holders and key members. This also helps in
leading the team in to administrative section and generating sequence for completing project.
Various task and activities needs to be complete where WBS is the one plays important role by
dividing in to smaller section and attaining higher performance. In relation to Sainsbury, WBS is
helpful as allocation in small activity and give contribution to complete it (Swailes, 2019).
Gantt chart – This defined as project management tool which use by project manager in
assisting in planning and scheduling of all project as it is useful to handle each task. This shows
via graph and chart that states in what time period the assigned task will be completed. The
project management task is converted in to horizontal bar chart that can help to develop the
understanding in particular field. On the other side, Gantt chart is uses to keep activities on track
when there is large team and stakeholders introduces changes. This is integrated with project
management solutions by giving visibility and accomplishing the task in certain period of time.
6

This chart is used by researcher to share the time period in which task will be done effectively
(Sharipov, Krotenko and Dyakonova, 2020).

schedule for monitoring and completing the aims and objectives of the project.
From the above analysis it can be evaluated that project management plan is prepared by
management that involves cost, risk, resources, scope, plan and other activities are important to
complete the project and managing the activities. After deciding the aims and objectives,
researcher started to conduct the research for the purpose of reaching the conclusion and
developing the performance.
TASK 2
P4 Carry out small-scale research applying primary and secondary methods for the purpose of
meeting project aims and objectives
Project research is the task for researcher who focus on particular topic and conduct the
analysis for completing activities. For the present research, talent management is assigned topic

Qualitative method - This means a research method which use by researcher or
individual to collect data and analysing them properly. The method is dealing with problems and
generation of new ideas in relation to particular research. The main focus of this method is
analysing non-numerical data and developing the understanding to measure task and
performance (Damarasri and Ahman, 2020).
Quantitative method -This method is use to conducting quantitative study that
determine the relationship between different variables. In this data and information is mainly
collected by using structure and research instrument. This deals with numbers, logic, and object
stance that can help to design the data appropriately and handling the project.
Use of different research methodology for researching area:
Research Philosophy – This is empirical analysis of topic that develop the knowledge
and skills in particular area and complete the study. In completing any project there is need to
9

have good understanding topic and conduct the proper analysis. Every process of research is
based on assumptions and nature of knowledge that impacts on human mind and their workings.
Pragmatism, positivism, realism, and interpretivism are the philosophies that use by researcher
according to their suitable aspects. In relation to current study positivism philosophy has been
used that can help to collect highly structure data and measure from large sample (Kichuk,
Brown and Ladkin, 2019).
Research Approach – This explained as plans and the procedure for research that can
help to reach the conclusion by considering assumptions and analysis, and interpretation.
Different research approaches are used by researcher to complete the study and managing the
particular activity. Deductive approach will use by researcher for collecting information on the
basis of assumptions and task which are important to perform effectively.
Research strategy – The strategy is mentioned as planning which uses to arranging and
managing the task. This is important for each individual to focus on each task and formulate the

and interview has been prepared that supports to complete the study. The secondary method is
used to collect the information from books, journal, and article which can help to complete the
project timely.
Time horizon – This can be explained as planning horizon which means fixed point of
time in the future that uses to complete the research and managing the project. Time of the
10

project should be evaluated by management or researcher so that task can be perform easily. The
investigator will complete the research within 7 month that will provide the right steps to manage

TASK 4
P7 Reflect on the value of undertaking the project to meet stated objectives
While studying in London college, I completed many courses which developed my skills
and abilities. As I was interested in human resource management so I worked in this field as an
HR management. I feel happy to conduct this research as it improved my knowledge in area of
talent management strategies. During this, my tutor has assigned me a project on talent
management where I conduct a research and needs to formulate the strategies which can be use
to develop the business performance. I found some of my weakness as lack of communication,
ICT skills, time management skills and other that might be create the problem in working task
properly. I handled this project by observing my senior and allocating the work between my
colleagues who supported me to complete the project timely. From the project I learnt that every
task can be manage by using resources properly. As a project manager I rate 8 out of 10 to my
project where I need to learn more skills to get full marks. Therefore, I managed and handled the
project smoothly.
M4: Evaluate the value of the project management process to meet stated objectives and support
own learning and performance.
The process of project management involves conception, initiation, planning, execution,
performance and monitoring the all activities that are related to project. This process is used by
researcher to meet with stated objectives and developing the learning which can help to attain the
higher performance and maintain productivity.
CONCLUSION
From the report it can be concluded that talent management is uses to influencing and
attracting the people for the purpose of getting the work done and managing the good
performance. The aims and objectives of the reports are different as it helps to complete the
study. There are different tools and techniques which can be used by researcher to provide the
better quality of data that can help to complete project. The researcher will use primary and
secondary method as data collection that supports to manage each task. Deductive apporach is to
develop the understanding and managing the task effectively. Gantt chart is use to show the
timescale of working and managing the good performance. Whereas, WBS is used to breaking
down the larger activities in to smaller so that each task will be done properly.
