developing a theme which is a need of
great activities.

London, 2018).

operational issues which presented in
employee engagement in organisation.
 Checking of resources for
implementing staff engagement activity
(Choromides, 2018).
 Assembling team to develop a plan for
conducting effective staff engagement
activity. Such as planning team,
marketing team, volunteers.
 Booking of venue like hotels,
organisation's conference rooms etc.
 Arrangement of caterers and other
vendors which must be a logistic on the
day of event.
 To invite stars of the event with a solid
line-up to attract more and more
employees and guarantee a professional
experience.
 Drafting of agenda which inspire
employees and expand their horizons
such as interactive sessions, question
and answer session etc (Singh, 2019).

 Delegation of work for starting
registration attendees.
 Delegation of work for promoting staff
engagement activity in other
organisations.

CONCLUSION
a.) Conclusion of section 2.1
From the above report it can be concluded that staff engagement is the major activity on
which there must be a development of effective practises by which their needs and wants get

fulfilled. In this report, Smart objectives have been created to investigate operational issues and
to determine challenges which faced by businesses for staff engagement. Further, specification of
task has been evaluated using Gantt chart where challenge has been faced while calling specific
speaker to attend and share their motivational views to engage staff in organisation for long term
basis. Further, while composing project scope challenges have been faced while raising
communication efficiency to employees where it is difficult to develop a comfort of trust among
them in order to know their expectation from organisation. Challenge which had been faced
while developing budget is regarding lack of funding for conducting successful business activity.
b.) conclusion of section 2.2
From the above section 2.2 it is concluded that human resource manager must have to
develop effective planning in order to conduct successful business activity in organisation.
Therefore, in managing personal and professional work of human resource officer, proper
planning has been created with The Priority Matrix. This is the matrix which has four
alternatives for developing routine to manage organisational work. Therefore, to conduct staff
engagement activity and to perform daily organisational activity work has been divided with four
sections, where very important work is marked in first priority, less important marked in
scheduled time and some work has been delegated to others.
