INTRODUCTION
In the life of an individual work based experience play a crucial and effective role in
development of a person (Al Mamun, Lawrie, and Wright, 2020). Most of the institutions in
recent times, develop a precise approach in managing development plan for long term growth of
business. In the professional life, it is a major responsibility of a person to focus on different
aspects of work based learning in order to gain experience. In this project example of Al Pacino
restaurant is taken into consideration for better understanding dimensions of work-based
learning. The restaurant is a famous restaurant based in Colchester, Essex and serves different
customers at a particular point of time. In this project planning related to a project along with its
initiation is helpful for business development. This project covers brief analysis like SWOT,
PEST and Porter's five forces for better perform self development. In this project there is also
discussion on various factors that impact on growth of an individual.

TASK
Planned and initiated the project. Setting targets, aims and objectives for project
The planning is a major tool which is used to develop a good framework for future

in the marketplace, majorly focus on front office operations for performing well in the hospitality
sector. Targets, aims and objectives are also important for management of business in order to

from initiation to completion
Project life cycle, is combination of several phases which are important in developing an
individual's progress related to a project. The key advantage of maintaining project life cycle is
to focus on team development and needs of every project. All major companies in the recent
times, focus on monitoring and supervision on employees to develop fair practices in project life
cycle. The project life cycle is also related to mentioning a good approach which leads to
expansion in life of a person. Majority of my team members told me that following project life
cycle is very much important for overall development of a company. The monitoring of various
aspects related to company development are measured by project life cycle and its aspects for
career growth (Gupta, and Deep, 2019). In the restaurant I learned about management of a
project in a well defined manner, In all major aspects of maintaining a good project, application
of evaluation also play a critical role. The progress of our whole project at the restaurant is
