HR is considered the responsibility which includes understanding the essence of personnel in
an organization thereby recruiting them as per the requirements. It is one of the most
disciplined tasks that have to be entertained by the professional in the organization. There are

personnel to recruit such employees who are quality oriented towards the different tasks in
the management (Alliger et al., 2015).
Every activity of the organization should be oriented towards the successful development and
growth. It is the responsibility on the part of the human resource department to train and
guide the employees thereby engages them towards different activities. There has to be
proper and effective communication among all the departments of the organization which
helps in maintaining the bond among the various departments. It would help in understanding
the nature of the activities that is being undertaken by the respective department along with
the pitfalls if any .They can coordinate in all the different activities and help in eliminating

Some of the core skills that should be undertaken by the personnel in the entertainment of the

entertainment of communication towards the different candidates. It would help in building
the confidence and most importantly communication should be taking into account
objectives and goals of the organization.

behaviours and develop a professional development plan for a chosen job role. P2
In order to develop the potential on the part of the management it is necessary to understand
the nature of the activities that is prevalent in the organization (Cascio, 2015). There should
be knowledge, skill and potential on the part of the personnel to entertain the proceedings in
the management. There has to be training and development that should be entertained by the
personnel which would help in the ease in the task. Personal skill would include proper
communication, resilience, adaptability, confidence and presence of mind, entertain
proceedings beyond the comfort zone so on and so forth. It would help in building the
momentum on the part of the personnel.
There should be the element of adaptability in relation to the activities to be precise. There

leading to the aftermath of innovation and improvisation in the functioning at the same time.
There has to be proper quality management that should be the unique selling proposition on
the part of the personnel. It would help in the ease in the entertainment of the task to be
precise. In this assignment me being the personnel in the human resource department it is my
responsibility to entertain the proceedings in the effective mode. It is the core perspective on
the part of the human resource department to go for the recruitment and the training skills that
would help in the proper and the accurate selection of the employee for the organization. It
helps in developing oneself and presenting oneself at the organizational platform. There has
to continuous follow through on the part of the personnel and the department heads in the
deliberation of the task that would be helpful in the ascertainment of the task (Cloutier et al.,
2015).

has to be accountability and adaptability that should be parallel in nature in relation to the

In order to develop the momentum there has to be quality check on the part of the top
management giving the insights towards improvisation in the task along with quality down
under. At the start up in the professional development there has to be the planning of the
policies and procedures that should be undertaken by the management (Hon and Lui, 2016).
After that there has to be the implementation of the plans and procedures that would be
helpful in the task. It should be undertaken taking into account the goals and the objectives of
the organization. Understanding the tastes and the preferences of the consumers thereby
replicating would be commendable.

Produce a detailed and coherent professional development plan that appropriately sets
out learning goals and training in relation to the learning cycle to achieve sustainable
business performance objectives. D1
In order to develop in the smooth manner there can be the usage of the Kolb’s Learning Tool
that would be helpful for Sainsbury to develop effectively (Baldwin, 2016). The organization
has to manoeuvre towards quality development thereby inculcate activities accurately. Usage of
modern technologies would be helpful in the overall development. Certain perspectives should
be taken into account in the overall functioning of the organization which includes:
Experience absolute in nature- It would help in decision making and chalking out the
perspectives that would be helpful for the management. The key technologies and the
marketing approaches along with the product should be analysed in the detailed manner.
Observation reflective in nature- The advantages and the pitfalls should be taken into account
giving the insights that has been provided by the organization.
Conceptualization debutant- The collaboration of the new technologies in the activities of the
organization would be helpful in strengthening the system thereby replicate quality outputs.

consumers taking into account the tastes and the preferences of the consumers thereby

Analyse the differences between organisational and individual learning, training and
development. P3
It is necessary to mention that the organization has a crucial role to play in the entertainment
of the training and the development features towards the sustainable business performance.
(Li et al., 2016). However, there are certain differences while providing training and
development toward the individual and the organizational levels. The individual performance
on the part of Sainsbury would include providing quality support and services in the
entertainment of the activities. There are various teams that have been entrusted with the
responsibility to adjudicate the activities. The marketing and the other teams are to adjudicate
the proceedings in the management.
The marketing team promotes the products by describing detailed aspects of the products to
the consumers. Similarly the advertising department is to provide the varieties of the products
to the consumers and convince them to avail the same. It is the responsibility on the part of
the customer care department to adjudicate every detailed query that has been put forward by
the consumers. It would help in having a clear understanding in relation to the products and
the services. Proper interactive skills should be present on the part of the personnel
interacting with the consumers. In the case of the training on the part of the individual it is
necessary to learn the different perspectives in relation to handling different categories of
consumers (Shaner, 2019).
On the other hand the senior management should be very cautious in relation to the analysis
of the products at the large context. The overall functioning of the organization along with the
core aspects is being discussed at the operational level. It is the responsibility on the part of
the professionals to entertain the proceedings taking into account the business market. There
is the requirement on the part of the organization to train the managers as to adjudicate the
proceedings in the efficient mode.
At the organizational level the activities are being undertaken by the managers and the
administrative heads that would help in providing the follow through in relation to the
business along with the future prospects and the strategies that would be helpful for the
organization at the corporate level. In fact when the consumers are being attracted towards
the different products and the services and avail them then it can be helpful in the retention of
