Introduction
This report depicts the importance of implementing proper change management approach
and its importance in personnel and professional skill development. It has been found that, with
the help of accurate change management the skills and knowledge of any personnel will
improve. The ONE particular aspect that has been chosen for personal change management is all
about “improvement in communication for detail information analysis”. After personal SWOT
analysis the strength, weaknesses, opportunities and threats are identified. It is defined that,
strength gives huge opportunities for personal development on the other hand the weaknesses are
the root cause of threats. It is necessary for any person to set the life objectives and the
weaknesses are to be resolved to avoid different upcoming threats. The goal of the changing
processes, the preparation for the changes and the actual changes those are to be incorporated are
also elaborated in this report. The ways through which the changes will be incorporated and the
sustaining phase that has to be considered are also illustrated in this report.
The goal of the changing process (describe what side of yourself you would
like to change)
With personal SWOT analysis it is defined that, there are certain weak characteristics
those are needed to be changed accordingly for the personal development. Change management
is not much discriminated from a general projects. Rather personal change management can also
be defined as a project which has an aim, goal and objective as well.The ultimate aim of the
project is to meet its objectives by resolving the issues of personal weaknesses.
I am interactive in nature but the main problem is I fail to go through or analyze the
details. From the overview student do always come to conclusion which is not at all beneficial
for personal growth or future career. The main goal of personal change management is to
overcome the weaknesses rather convert the weaknesses into strength or opportunities. It is
identified that with proper leadership, mentor and motivation the personal weaknesses can be
resolved completely. Changes can be brought with both environmental and personal changes.
Project based future development will bring personal change that is expected will surely bring
personal changes in life. The self concept is little weak and lacking in power as well as
imagination. The future possibilities that my mind always keep on calculates for those identities

2CHANGE MANAGEMENT
are quite reparative and limited at the same time. It is very much natural to resist personal
changes. However, those not have to be the actual case on the other hand
As I have successfully identified my personal weaknesses thus I think it become easier
for me to bring changes in my personal life. The self reinforce loop that I can follow is
elaborated below:
Control in behavior and mostly growth in self confidence
Short temper and lack of self-confidence are the main problems that I am suffering from.
In addition to this, another thing on which I have to focus on is detail understanding. It is realized
that in order to gain knowledge and for becoming a skillful person students have to focus on
depth of the topics. Single topic may have different perspectives, thus a single topic should be
learned using different aspects. Human behavior is comprises of thoughts, actions and behavior
altogether. During the changing phase people should not focus on those aspects that are wrong
about the change. At the initial phase, only all the ideas are to be reorganized and rearranged
accordingly to avoid discomfort. In order to bring self confidence workshopshould be attended
by the professionals.
However, at the very initiation phase, studentsshould understand the main feature that
have to bring. I think that, personal change will help to bring corporate changes simultaneously.
Instead of thinking about wrong and bad aspects students should focus on their objectives of life.
The aim of behavior in the personal development is not about give up the identity or the trust
rather it helps to bring changes in personal life by identifying be beneficial ways those will help
me to integrate myself to the new working environment. As much as prcatices in the behavior
come, that much better chances students will get from their personal development. Moreover, it
can be said that personal development will help to bring satisfactory changes in my personal life.
Explain the planned goals/outcomes of your change project)
The preparation (what do you need to do in order to prepare yourself for change?)
There are certain steps those are necessary to be followed for the personal development
or personal growth. The steps are as follows:

3CHANGE MANAGEMENT
Understanding my own strength and weaknesses: For personal growth and development
I think I should know myself first.The areas of my life those are really holding back my personal
growth is to be understood at the very initiation phase.
Setting personal growth: For personal growth I think that, the growth those are needed to
be identified initially. It will help to renew self confidence and simultaneously the passion of life.
Based on what actually I want from my future life should have to be set as my future goal. Even
in order to become more successful in career also goal setting is very much necessary.
Create a plan: A proper plan in terms of change management should have to be prepared.
It is expected that, with successful plan the destination of lifewill become much easier to reach. I
think I should attend workshop and personal development classes to strengthen the areas of
future growth.
Get better every day: With the help of accurate future plan the current weaknesses can be
easily resolved. Daily growth is very much necessary for future success. The threats that may
generate from weaknesses are to be analyzed and prioritized and based on that huge progress
plan is to be developed to get better every day.
Avoid unplanned changes: Only planned changes are to be incorporated and the
unplanned changes should be avoided. Instead of reactive proactive changes should be
incorporated.
Implementation of change: The change has to be implemented considering all necessary
factors. It is the role of the person itself to bring the necessary changes in their daily actions. The
diagnosis includes personal evaluation and interaction along with other people. From the result
of the diagnosis the changes can be implemented. I have realized that with the help of internal
and open communication I will be able to interact with others by sharing my thoughts, creativity
and ideas as well.
The actual change
The actual changes that have to bring are improvement in professional communication
and deep analysis of information. I also think that in order to overcome personal weaknesses it is

4CHANGE MANAGEMENT
very much crucial for students to focus on both the problems and positive attributes at the
diagnosis phase. It is very much necessary for me to be an enough strong person to tackle even
tough situations under excessive pressure. Improvement in my communication skill is also
another important thing that needs to be improves for a bright future.
Activities to be done: The three different personal development or personal change
management activities those are required to be developed include forming activity, surrounding
activity and testing activity. With the help of the forming activities the development factors will
be arranged accordingly, the testing activities are generally evaluation activities. On the other
hand the surrounding activities deals with those activities that collectively helps to give proper
responses.
Classes or workshops to attend: With the diagnostic results of the personal SWOT
analysis I have realized that, my personal weaknesses will be resolves if I attend the driving
change conferences and also annual change and transformation conferences. In Dubai a change
management conference has also been arranged. I think that if I attend the conferences then the
impact of change management on personal challenges and disruption can be resolved
completely. In addition to this, change management workshop arranged by the Mexican
association should be attended and learning from the workshop should have to be applied in the
practical field.
Tools for application: For personal development different tools are also required to be
applied. Based on the personal weaknesses the tools that are to be applied include transformation
tools and detailed case studiesanalysis etc. The different planned changes considered for the
personal changes is comprises of certain phases including initiation, planning, design and
implementation. The magnitude of personal change includes incremental change and
fundamental change. Cultural setting is another important aspect that has to be considered.
After analyzing the weakness it is determined that for future development rather for
implementing personal changes long time is needed because personal change management is not
a short term factor but it is a long term sustainable factor. Each change management change
management approach may not work on different person. Development of communication skill
will improve the person itself.

The sustaining phase
The students have to travel long way from the previous to the current situation. These
changes will definitely change the personal life of the students. This is the reason that I want to
continue the way I am today and being already interactive in nature, the major flaw in me was
that I was not very good in analyzing people. It is decided to analyze people thoroughly before
drawing a conclusion regarding a person. Students will continue to analyze people with scrutiny
before trusting an individual. This process will help me in being more robust in nature and stay
away from any kind of frauds. Students would like to continuously develop the ability to
understand motive of peoples around me and need to keep on analyzing myself and other people
with whom I am getting acquainted with and need to understand my short coming and after
understanding the short comings of myself, I need to change the processing of my life style. This
is the only way in can develop myself and constantly develop myself by analyzing the growth in
my attributes. This will help me in understanding and focusing on the aspects that I need to work
on to grow as a strong human being. The fact that my major objective is to get better than
changing myself is that the processing must be done in order to transcript the data transaction
and increase the communication skills to interact with others a understand their whereabouts.
This will help me to stay updated regarding the thought that others possess regarding me. This
fact will help me in understanding the people who are well-wishers of mine and people who are
not well-wishers of mine.
This will help me in staying upright due to the fact that I will be capable enough to
understand the enemies and friends of mine. This helps me in understanding the fact that people
on whom we can trust in order To get our job done. This will help me staying upright and protect
me from falling back to my old situation and understand my own strengths and weaknesses. This
helps me to know the study limitation that is leading to the fact that students can process tasks in
an efficient manner. Understanding my limits will help me from falling in any kind of trap that
might harm me. In case if any student forget their limitations and perform tasks that are out of
their caliber will surely fail terribly. This will hamper their set of terminologies and their
principles as well. This will be the major reason for their failure, if students do not understand
these limits and fail then it might affect their career in a negative way. In case I understand my
limits it will ensure the fact that I can accomplish myself with proper knowledge. This will help
me in being able enough to understand the problems that I might be facing in near future.

6CHANGE MANAGEMENT
Understanding the problems that I might face in near future will help me in terminating
the problems with proper planning that will help me in overcoming the hurdles. This will be
helpful in processing of the task that is allotted to me in an efficient way. Students must focus on
personal growth. This will help me in ensuring the fact that efficiency with which the job will be
performed increases. This will help me in better understanding of the situations and revert back
to them with proper proceedings. This is the major reason that need tell grow as an individual
constantly. Despite the fact that growing as an individual is one of the most important steps that
students will take to stay in the position, the step with highest priority will keep on updating their
knowledge regularly. Staying updated regularly will help me in processing the tasks that will be
assigned to me. The fact that keeping myself updated will also help me in understanding the
current scenario of the society and help me function accordingly.
This is one of the major factors that will ensure the fact that the steps that I will take will
be helpful for me and will have a positive impact on my social being. Planning will be required
to stay in the position of developed self rather than falling back to the old version of myself who
had many flaws. Planning will help me in terminating the problems regarding the processing of
the task that will be provided to me. In case of pre planning of the project, students can
understand the problems that I might be facing during the course of performing the project as
work accordingly, leading to the fact that the time and resources that I might consume to
accomplish myself will decrease.
Conclusion
From the above report it can be concluded that I need to convert my weaknesses into
strengths in order to stay in a better condition. This will ensure the fact that I stay on track and
stay motivated for my upcoming projects. This will ensure the fact that I will get better with time
on following the techniques that I have stated in the above report. The techniques that I have
stated will also help in staying sustained in the processing of the changes that will be brought by
following terminologies that are stated in the report. This will help me in maintaining a level that
I will achieve by performing the methodologies and terminologies that ii have stated above. Self-
developing will help me in proper decision making. Terminologies and methodologies that are
stated in the report will help me in growing up as a better individual. This will ensure that I get

7CHANGE MANAGEMENT
better as a human and terminologies when put into use will help us to stay updated as a human
and will help me in proper decision making. Proper decision making will help me in dealing with
the problems that might approach me. I will become self-dependent and will be capable enough
to perform my duties in a more efficient way.
