session diminishes productivity of the work.

performance (Bosangit, Hibbert and McCabe, 2015).
 In addition to this, technological development consisting of the development of
machinery. For many years of availability of travel is determines as major determinant.
 Along with this, income and price are also major constraints that could create impact on
the travelling functions and operations. Therefore, tourists require efficient financial
resources to make strong economic situation.
 Most of the useful measurement accompanied through increasing income which afford to
travel.

3.4 Suggestion for improvement
In respect to perform several functions, following suggestion will be provided at Thomas
Cook group:
Proper communication: In respect to create systematic work activities, Thomas Cook
group has responsibilities to do their communication with different people. In this perspective,
they can easily communicate with several people. With the help of the better understanding
towards each other, aims and objectives will be accomplished in desired manner (Buhalis and
Foerste, 2015).
Reduce issues and manage business functions: In Thomas Cook Group, there different
employees work together who have different personality and skills. In respect to work in
systematic manner, qualities and performance need to be managed as per the business
requirement. With the help of the producing activities to solve issues and risks, performance of
the company will be manage at workplace (Stolk and Hanley, 2015).
TASK 4
4.1 Monitor progress against original proposal
In respect to work in Thomas Cook group, there are different activities exist in which
monitoring is needed. I have several opportunities to develop positive performance at workplace.
10

In the selected business, there are different people have different views towards the same thing.
This is because, it helps to implement systematic plan and satisfy employees with work and
capabilities (Bosangit, Hibbert and McCabe, 2015). It shows that I performed very well to do the
systematic results. In respect to take initiate in the plan, multiple task will be manage and
perform in systematic manner. In order to provide proper services, I am lack so that it is essential
to do task in different manner. Following are certain parameters that helps to create innovative
results:
 Poor management in the Thomas Cook group create impact on the task and activities.
 Inappropriate benefits in the motivational activities.
 Lack of proper arrangement of staff members.
 Lack of capabilities and skills to do work and perform targets.
4.2 Quality of performance
There are different kinds of methods exist that helps to improve performance with
evaluation activities. With the different activities and aims, quality of performance applied in the
following consideration:
 Feedbacks from the previous activities: In order to evaluate the performance, it is
essential to take feedback from the previous activities. In this consideration, as per the
feedback, I need to perform tasks that followed at workplace (Hunter, Chung and Koo,
2015). In addition to this, Thomas Cook Group will easily understand that how they can
deal with new targets and goals.
 Self evaluation method: Another method considered self evaluation that helps to
understand the own performance towards the aims and objectives (Buhalis and Foerste,
2015). With the help of the own assessment, I can develop creative skills and
performance in systematic manner at workplace.
4.3 Analysis learning which taken in work experience
Manager plays a very essential role in the organisation who take care of the company
good environment (Kennedy, 2015). Thomas cook manager role is to manage their employees
and take care the needs of their clients and customers. Manager has the responsibility to adopt
new changes in order to make sure new opportunities and learning to meet the needs of clients.
There are some learning of manager given below.
11

Decision making skills: Manager of the organisation is the individual who needs to be good at
take different decision making approaches for the development of the organisation. Thomas cook
manager take decision on the basis of facts and after analysing the external environment. It helps
to become good leader at the work place. Talented manager also take decision at the time of
uncertain situations and give better solution to the company and manage the work of team
leaders (Week, 2017).
Multitasking: Manager is the multitasker who participate in different activities and give good
effective output to the organisation. Manager helps to make plans, identify company threats and
opportunities, measure the external factors, analysing the productivity level of the employees,
market demand, customer preferences etc. Manager needs to be multitasking in order to adopt
new opportunities and growth area.
Technical skills: Manager is the good technical leader which helps company to make good
technical skills in order to implement the plans in a effective manner. Manager needs to have
technical skills to measure the mathematical, scientific and computer based skills (Nielsen,
2017).
Risk taker: Manager of the organisation should be a good risk taker in order to sustain the
company image in uncertain environment. Thomas cook is the tour operator company which has
to face issues related locations and their charges and cost related issues and risk. For that,
manager of Thomas cook is the good risk taker and make backup plans for the company to
ensure safe and healthy working environment (Kim, Woo and Uysal, 2015). With the help of
experiences manager going to learn new things and market positions in order to new challenges
and opportunities.
4.4 Make recommendation for enhance experience.
Manager role in the company is very essential to ensure perfect working environment. To
enhance the productivity and working skills. Manager needs to take new learning and
experiences in order to make new business growth plans and new business opportunities.
Furthermore, Manager require bran-new development skills and needs to enhance the knowledge
to implement the effective changes (Park and et.al, 2015). Besides, Manager of the company
needs to obtain new skills and share its own experiences with the team leaders as well. To
12

enhance experience they should apply new theories and market concepts to learn new things and
take new opportunities. They need to take feedbacks from his senior colleagues in order to fill
the gap. Besides, Manager should learn new skills in order to manage the company plan and
programmes between the employees. So that, they form new effective working environment for
the employees Week, 2017).

assess the capabilities and skills, coaching and seminar will be ascertain in systematic manner.
Furthermore, multi-task assessment is also method that could be implemented at workplace
(Kim, Woo and Uysal, 2015).
M3 Communicate appropriate findings
In the above skills, I found that I am lack in management of time as per multi task. It
helps to increase communication power from various people at workplace (Stolk and Hanley,
2015). It is the best way to make interaction among different people at Thomas Cook Group.
D1 Critical reflection
In order to perform different tasks, I evaluate activities that are taken as per the time and
tasks. In this way, management skills must be develop in the strategic management activities. It
is essential to make proper functioning that helpful to business (Kim, Woo and Uysal, 2015).
D2 Responsibilities to manage work
In the business several activities needed to perform task. In this way, communication and
providing services helps to develop creative performance in systematic manner. In this regard,
different roles and responsibilities create positive performance to develop continually and attain
profits and revenue (Pradhan and et.al, 2017).

In respect to carry the above assessment, it can be stated that there are several areas exist
in which performance will be developed through provide services. In this way, communication
will be develop to run smooth functions. Hence, it is essential to increase skills and maintain
positive performance.
