development
Individual learning-
Learning is believed to be a work based process which is usually self directed by an
individual. This way they learn the capacities to adapt more aspects related to it are learning and

working are interconnected. This aspect involves observing employees getting involve in routine
activities and participate more in it. Try to gain experience by working with experienced
members of company. These are the areas through which they will be able to gain more
knowledge and learn new things. More the employees participate in other areas more they will be
able to learn. Employees tries to be a part of organizational processes so that they can learn more
and commit to new things as this also keep them motivated. In order for this aspect to be
successful it is necessary that Tesco must have sufficient amount of resources such as money,
time and expertise so that they can provide them with facilities for learning. They assess their
employees by their social background, their status and the relation they have maintained with
others. This form of learning begins when employee himself wants to develop their skills. The
higher they set their approach more advanced way they can develop their skills. In order for
individual to learn new things and make progress it depends on their capabilities as if they are
highly capable then they will give more attention to it (Slade, Philip and Morris, 2018).
Organizational Learning-
This aspect focus on learning and development for company as a whole, the focus is on
finding solutions that are effective to problems so that they can offer optimum level of
satisfaction to their employees. This is considered to be a difficult part of company as it comes
on roles and responsibilities for managers of company and being already under so much pressure
of other areas this brings more burdens on them. That is why decisions taken by them for
learning and development are quick and rapid. It is important for them to take initiatives that are
concerned with learning and development because it is directly linked with company’s
achievement of goals and objectives. There are different and various characteristics that are
involved in it such as opportunities those are ongoing for learning and ensure to provide them
with feedback so that they can make progress in those areas. It helps to keep a balance between
routine work so that they can spare their time for opportunities that are provide for training.
Tesco ensures that learning and development are included as a part of their strategy so that they
can plan it up and make the necessary changes with HR of company (Gao and Bernard 2018).

P 4 Analyze the need for continuous learning and professional development to drive sustainable
business performance.
Continuous learning is considered to be the process of learning skills that are new and
acquire knowledge which keeps on going. This can be observed in many forms which can either
formal or casual. It involves taking initiatives by individuals or professionals so that they can
make it more challenging. Companies such as Tesco can keep it an aspect of internal part of their
business. Every business that is operating in market and has established their base of operations
needs to cope up with this measure as they have to fight with the competition in market. if they
keep focusing on this measure then they will surely be able to come up with measures that are
innovative and new which will grab the attention of people in market. For that they need to
provide their employees training and offer them with resources so that they can work up to the
challenge by working with measures that are creative. If management of Tesco does not support
this initiative or action then they won’t be able to make changes in their processes. It is necessary
that management creates challenges for them in task that they offers so that they can work on
finding solutions that are new and achieve goals for them. This way contribution made by them
will help company to reach different heights (Seymour and Geldenhuys, 2018).
This aspect is considered very important if the company wants to keep their operations
sustainable they need to implement this measure as it will help them to make it more cost
effective. The reason behind this is by developing skills of their current employees they will be
able to use them in different areas and company won’t have to invest their time and resources in
finding new people. If they use this measure in order to keep it linked with continuous learning
then they need to appreciate their employees so that they feel valued and recognize that company
is serious about their development in career. By learning and development on continuous basis
they can gain more knowledge which will be helpful for the company as they can implement it
on new projects. Not only it is beneficial for company it is also beneficial for employees. Overall
it all leads to making the company achieve a sustainable path for their business. By
understanding the need for continuous development employees can attain the position of top
performer in business as by developing skills and knowledge they can increase their growth rate
which will result in better performance. This will also help them to make progress in their
careers and for that company and employees must work in coordination so that they can work on
getting more training through which they can improve their skill set. This way they can add more
business performance.

If employees helps them to form their business and make their way to achieve sustainable growth
then company will offer them with promotion or incentives as per the contribution made by
them. There are many areas in which employees can either learn or develop their skills such as
looking for eco friendly or social measures in order to gain acceptance in eyes of customers as
this will help them to increase overall sales and by earning their trust they will be able to retain
them for long period of time (Dönmez and Grote, 2018).
M 2 Apply learning cycle theories to analyze the importance of implementing continuous
professional development
There are different aspects to theory of learning cycle by Kolb as every individual rely on
some of it. It is important for leaders of Tesco to understand this theory as this will help them to
assess their employees so that they can make the process of learning as per that. With making
changes in the programs of learning they will be able to implement professional development on
continuous basis so that they can increase their strength and delegate more tasks (Coetzer, Bussin

specific project. It is important for Tesco to work on voluntary basis. The rise in level of
efficiency is because of sufficient amount of resources. Businesses can form up an agreement to
set the actions on which they need to keep independent decisions and on which they need to form
and work together (Baldé, Ferreira and Maynard, 2018).

personal benefits. In order to become successful they need to compare their achievements and
match it up with the targets they have set for it. This will help them to know their current
position and motivate them to work on reaching the target they want to reach. Sometimes with
this aspect they emphasizes with unfair measures through which they can achieve objectives by
overcoming measures in order to set up a plan which must be as per the structure of company so
whenever its implemented it gives company the support they need and they are able to reach
their targets effectively and efficiently (Ahmed and Kassem, 2018).
