Introduction.

I am Hafis Jawade T and I came from Chattipparamba which locates just 5 Kilometers far away
from Malappuram, Kerala, I have finished my bachelor degree in B.com Co-operation from
Calicut University, Tenhipalam, Kerala, India. Currently I am perusing my postgraduate
diploma in business management course in the B School International of the Edexcel BTEC
Level 7 extended diploma in strategic management and leadership. There are many
requirements for to become a strategic leader or strategic manager for that need to develop
many skills. So here I am going to discuss my personal development plan that’s how I will
develop my personal skills which will help me to be a god manager strategic leader in the
future.

Professional development is concerns improving yourself at work beyond meeting your

specific performance goals is too often left to the rote box-checking of annual performance
reviews. To successfully move to the next level, we need to ask ourselves: How can I ensure
I’m more valuable at the end of the year than I was at the beginning? Here is the need of
personal development planning. The personal development planning will help to answer the
above mentioned question. Some of the plan or objectives or investments will take time to
show results. But following through on them is likely to become your personal competitive
advantage, because so many people focus only on quick wins and abandon the rest. So, need
to stick-on until get result. Professional development takes three main forms which are,
learning, connecting, and creating. Depending on the phase of your career and your other goals
for the year, you may want to prioritize one more than the others. (Clark, 2016).

Personal development is a way to better understand yourself, your unique personality and
potentials, your strengths and weakness, your aspirations and your talents. And it’s not just a
way of solving problems in your life, it’s a way of growing, it is your way to a better life to
become an improved version of yourself. A personal development plan is a process that
consists of defining what is important to you, what you want to achieve, what strengths you
already have that help to achieve your goals, and what you need to improve and develop with
time. Personal development is a continuous lifelong process of nurturing, shaping and
improving skills and knowledge to ensure maximum effectiveness and ongoing employability.
(Mindofwinnercom, 2016).

HAFIS JAWADE T Professional Development For Strategic Managers 15-07-2018 Page No. 5
 Edexcel BTEC Level 7 Extended Diploma in Professional Development for Strategic Managers (QCF)

Personal development planning is the process of establishing aims and objectives (or goals)
what you want to achieve or where you want to go, in the short, medium or long-term in your
career, assessing current realities, identifying needs for skills, knowledge or competence, and
selecting appropriate development activities to meet those perceived needs. (Managersorguk,
2018). In this assignment I am going to discuss my personal development plan and how I will
develop my personal skill with future plans.

1.1 Use appropriate methods to evaluate personal skills required to achieve

strategic goals.
Personality.
Personality is the typical pattern of thinking and feeling and behaviors that make a person
unique. This plays a role model for other employees working together. Personality is the
combination of characteristics or qualities that from an individual’s distinctive character.
personality is made up of the characteristic patterns of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that
make a person unique. In addition to this, personality arises from within the individual and
remains fairly consistent throughout life. (Verywellmindcom, 2018).

SMART Personality goal.

SMART personal goal is process that setting brings structure and tractability into your goals
and objectives. In stead of vague resolutions, SMART goal setting creates verifiable
trajectories towards a certain objective, with clear milestones and an estimation of the goal's
attainability. Every goal or objective, from intermediary step to overarching objective, can be
made S.M.A.R.T. and as such, brought closer to reality. (Yourcoachbe, 2018).

Accordance to the requirement of Task 1, I have identified and analyzed the SMART objectives
of personal and also along with for the purpose of achieve these objectives, the required skills
are also analyzed and explained on this task. In focusing towards the acronym of SMART, my
personal and organizational objectives should be specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and
bounding within time. That means the objectives whether it is personal or organization should
be specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and bounding within time.

In relation to the acronym of SMART, my personal objectives are:

HAFIS JAWADE T Professional Development For Strategic Managers 15-07-2018 Page No. 6
 Edexcel BTEC Level 7 Extended Diploma in Professional Development for Strategic Managers (QCF)

 Complete my PGDBM
 To take IELTS exam with 6.5 band.
 To complete my MBA top up program at Chester, UK
 Work in multinational company for five years.
 To Establish my own environment friendly Carry Bags Production Company and
develop international brand in packaging industry.

Personal Skill.
Personal skills are, in short, the various attributes and competencies that allow one to play well
with others. Personal skills certainly aren’t the ability to invent things, or communication skills
or technical skills. Successful people come in all shapes and sizes. Personal skill all successful
people possess is the ability to learn from their mistakes It is not really an ability, it is a
willingness. Knowing our own personal skills is very important to develop both our personal
and professional lives. Sometimes skills can be the abilities we are born with, our natural
talents, or things we develop through our experiences and deliberate practice, however it will
play an important role to an organization success. (Liz Ryan, 2016).

Personal Skills required to achieve Strategic Goals.

Every individual obtains the ability of doing something all that require to be some by is to
analyze what we have and how we can use it in positive manner. Basic knowledge and
information this is needed by the manager in making decisions and taking action. This is the
foundation level. According to the work of Pedler, Burgoyne and Boydell, as cited by (Mullins,
and Christy 2016). from their experience of the nature of management work and research
project, they identify 11 attributes which were possessed by successful managers, which are
grouped into three different levels but many of the qualities are interconnected and possession
of one contributes to possession of another. The specific skills and qualities may affect our
behavior and performance. The skill or quality of continuing sensitivity to events allows
managers to acquire basic knowledge and information. (Mullins, and Christy 2016).

Communication Skills.

HAFIS JAWADE T Professional Development For Strategic Managers 15-07-2018 Page No. 7
 Edexcel BTEC Level 7 Extended Diploma in Professional Development for Strategic Managers (QCF)

Being able to communicate effectively is the most important of all life skills, communication
is simply the act of transferring information from one place to another. It may be vocally,
written, and digital medias. Developing communication skill can help all aspects of personal
life. The way we speak with others and with ourselves eventually decides the nature of our
lives. Along these lines, administrator must ready to speak well with representatives to convey
vision and strategic plans. Various occupations require solid relational abilities and socially
individuals with enhanced relational abilities as a rule appreciate better relational associations
with loved ones. Supervisor should proficient to deal with struggle tenderly and listen to their
subordinates in the cases of relational abilities later on I have to confront those zones then
Effective relational abilities are principal to achievement in numerous parts of life. So I began
to hone my relational abilities. (Skillsyouneedcom, 2018).

Decision making skill.

Decision making is a key skill in the workplace, and is particularly important if you want to be
an effective leader. Whether you're deciding which person to hire, which supplier to use, or
which strategy to pursue, the ability to make a good decision with available information is vital.
A chief need it to settle on the correct choice in the opportune time. Basic leadership is one the
key point for the pioneers and director to take the business to finish everything. For a
supervisor, this ability is important one. As far as I am concern I am great at it. This skill may
help me to achieve my future objectives. Be as it may, to improve as a director I have to work
harder. In order to be success as effective manager I have to be good at some personal skills
such as time management, stress management and communication skill. (Mindtoolscom,
2018).

Problem Solving.
Problem solving requires two distinct types of mental skill, analytical and creative. Critical
thinking ability and cognitive skills are the important expertise each supervisor needs. I can
deal with any issues with my capacity at critical thinking regardless of how hard it is and gets
immense pleasure after completing with it with a psychological fulfillment. Analytical or
logical thinking includes skills such as ordering, comparing, contrasting, evaluating and
selecting. It provides a logical framework for problem solving and helps to select the best
alternative from those available by narrowing down the range of possibilities (a convergent
process). Analytical thinking often predominates in solving closed problems, where the many

HAFIS JAWADE T Professional Development For Strategic Managers 15-07-2018 Page No. 8
 Edexcel BTEC Level 7 Extended Diploma in Professional Development for Strategic Managers (QCF)

possible causes have to be identified and analyzed to find the real cause. Creative thinking is a
divergent process, using the imagination to create a large range of ideas for solutions. It requires
us to look beyond the obvious, creating ideas which may, at first, seem unrealistic or have no
logical connection with the problem. There is a large element of creative thinking in solving
open problems. The creative thinking skills can be divided into several key elements, which
are fluency - producing many ideas, flexibility - producing a broad range of ideas originality -
producing uncommon ideas, and elaboration - developing ideas.

1.2 Apply techniques to assess the professional skills required to support the
strategic direction of the organization.

Here for strategic manager development in personal skills should give more important to
achieve strategic goals within an organization; there are a number of professional’s skills that
require prominent strategic manager in order to achieve strategic goals of them. These are some
skills are there which are following.

Leadership skill

and conceptualization of complex and ambiguous relationships. Creativity in idea generation
and problem solving, ability to analyze events and perceives trends, anticipate changes and
recognize opportunities and potential problems. The ability to influencing the conduct of the
subordinates gives the vital chief a bearing for accomplishing the hierarchical objectives (Yukl,
and Uppal, 2017). If an individual is having the leadership skills he or she will come forward
in professional life. Managers must need these skills to lead the team and organization. And
leadership skills are guarantee to success, but as leaders he should need to have personal skill
to communication skill and time management because it’s essential for leadership skills.

Presentation skills.

Presentation skills are the skills you need in delivering effective and engaging presentations to
a variety of audiences. These skills cover a variety of areas such as the structure of
your presentation, the design of your slides, the tone of your voice and the body language you
convey. These skills are required to ensure that the subordinates understand the strategies and
plans. It is important to present the plans to the employees in clear and inspiring way as they
are the ones who will carry the task. This will help them to carry out their job in effective
manner and to achieve the set organizational goals as well.

Negotiation and conflict management.

demands to develop the ability to communicate effectively, listen actively, and resolve issues
with a sense of fairness for all. Serving on committees, planning program of studies with my
advisor, or negotiating deadlines with my colleagues all involved using some level of
negotiation skills; several of these experiences might have also included conflicts of interest
and a power differential between me and other individuals.

conducting a specialized activity, and the ability to use tools and equipment relevant to the
activity. (Yukl, and Uppal, 2017). It includes applying techniques and knowledge. It helps in
providing a strategic direction to employees regarding the ways in which they can implement
different techniques in their job It also helps him in providing appropriate guidance and training
to the subordinates and establishes an environment of continuous learning in the firm.

main objective and purpose, for conducting a skills audit of an individual is to identify the skills
and knowledge that individual requires, when carrying out a personal skill audit when the time

2.2 Apply appropriate techniques to identify preferred learning style.

HAFIS JAWADE T Professional Development For Strategic Managers 15-07-2018 Page No. 13
 Edexcel BTEC Level 7 Extended Diploma in Professional Development for Strategic Managers (QCF)

Learning is a very important process for achieving the business aims and objectives and it also
play a vital role in personal development and it is also very essential to improving the
organizational performance. If someone has the knowledge that what style and techniques is
best suitable for that person it can bring better outcome to his work and it can reduce the
repetition of mistake as an individual and professional.

Kolb's learning style.

Kolb's learning theory sets out four distinct learning styles which are based on a four stage
learning cycle. Kolb says that ideally this process represents a learning cycle or spiral where
the learner 'touches all the bases', i.e., a cycle of experiencing, reflecting, thinking, and acting.
There is brief description of Kolb's four learning styles.

Diverging (feeling and watching - CE/RO) - These people are able to look at things from
different perspectives. They are sensitive. They prefer to watch rather than do tending to gather
information and use imagination to solve problems. They are best at viewing concrete
situations several different viewpoints.

Assimilating (watching and thinking - AC/RO) - The Assimilating learning preference is for
a concise, logical approach. Ideas and concepts are more important than people. These people
require good clear explanation rather than practical opportunity. They excel at understanding
wide-ranging information and organizing it a clear logical format.

Converging (doing and thinking - AC/AE) - People with a Converging learning style can
solve problems and will use their learning to find solutions to practical issues. They prefer
technical tasks, and are less concerned with people and interpersonal aspects. People with a
Converging learning style are best at finding practical uses for ideas and theories. They can
solve problems and make decisions by finding solutions to questions and problems.

HAFIS JAWADE T Professional Development For Strategic Managers 15-07-2018 Page No. 14
 Edexcel BTEC Level 7 Extended Diploma in Professional Development for Strategic Managers (QCF)

Accommodating (doing and feeling - CE/AE) - The Accommodating learning style is 'hands
on', and relies on intuition rather than logic. These people use other people's analysis, and prefer
to take a practical, experiential approach. They are attracted to new challenges and experiences,
and to carrying out plans. They commonly act on 'gut' instinct rather than logical analysis.

Honey and Mumford's learning style.

Honey and Mumford's learning style is directly derived from Kolb's learning style. While
basically the same as Kolb's model, there are a couple of differences. First, they substitute the
terms “reflector” for diverges (reflective observation), “theorist” for assimilators (abstract
conceptualization), “pragmatist” for converges (concrete experience), and “activist” for
accommodators (active experimentation). In addition, the new labels have slightly different
meanings.

Reflector - Prefers to learn from activities that allow them to watch, think, and review (time to
think things over) what has happened. Likes to use journals and brainstorming. Lectures are
helpful if they provide expert explanations and analysis.

Theorist - Prefer to think problems through in a step-by-step manner like lectures, analogies,
systems, case studies, models, and readings. Talking with experts is normally not helpful.

Pragmatist - Prefers to apply new learning to actual practice to see if they work likes
laboratories, field work, and observations.

Activist - Prefers the challenges of new experiences, involvement with others, assimilation and
role-playing. Likes everything new. Shows good problem solving skill with small group
discussions.

Every person has different mind-set and according to the mind they prefer different learning
style from which they believe they can learn better. As an individual I have identified style
which are more suitable for me learn. Base on my experiences I have learned that Honey and
Mumford's Reflector learning style is best suitable for me and it makes my learning more

HAFIS JAWADE T Professional Development For Strategic Managers 15-07-2018 Page No. 15
 Edexcel BTEC Level 7 Extended Diploma in Professional Development for Strategic Managers (QCF)

effective and efficient. The Reflector Prefers to learn from activities that allow them to watch,
think, and review (time to think things over) what has happened. Likes to use journals and
brainstorming. Lectures are helpful if they provide expert explanations and analysis. When I
considering and doing task I mostly prefer to use journals and brainstorming like personal
experiences in order to complete or finish my task.

3.1 Construct a personal development plan that meets leadership development

requirements identified in the skills audit.

Here I mentioned this learning outcome in above.

3.2 Use suitable methods to assess the outcomes of a personal development plan
against personal work objectives.

Personal and Professional Skills.

Personal Development Plan can be defined as a process that helps an individual to think about
his/her own learning, performance and/or achievements and to plan for his/her personal,
educational and career development. The purpose of the PDP is to get us to determine where it
is we want to go, and how we intend to get there.

Quick Plan to Overcome Weakness.

Here I need to overcome immediately some of my weakness to achieve or complete my

PGDBM course. So, here I need to develop a plan to overcome those above mentioned my
weaknesses. Initially, I need to develop a plan to improve my English language skill and
communication. So, first of all I would like to join an English language learning programme in
DLS English Language Learning Institution in Perinthalmana, Malappuram. On during every
Saturdays, Sundays and other holidays. Read English News Papers daily, read English Books
like autobiography of famous people, successful businessman’s stories, and history etc. those
will be more helpful to learn and develop English language skill as well as it helps to improve
knowledge in various fields especially successful story books may improve our confidence
also. Watching English movies daily and listening English news and radio programmes daily
half an hour will also help to improve my English language skills. So, here I can improve and
overcome my English language skill weakness.

HAFIS JAWADE T Professional Development For Strategic Managers 15-07-2018 Page No. 16
 Edexcel BTEC Level 7 Extended Diploma in Professional Development for Strategic Managers (QCF)

Secondly, I need to improve my communication skill to overcome the weakness of lack of

communication skill. Here I have a plan to improve my communication skill, that communicate
to people more than currently or previously, spend more time with people who are positive,
maintain eye contacts while communication, present assignments or stories etc. in the front of
group of people and treat all equally. Those will help to overcome my lack of communication
skill and improve my communication skill a lot. Thirdly, I need to rise my confidence to
overcome my lack of confidence. So, here I need to attend more motivational sessions or
programmes to improve my confidence level. Then I need to motivate myself and I need to
believe myself more. Those will also help to increase our confidence level more, so here I can
overcome my weakness of lack of confidence.

Fourthly, I need to overcome my weakness of high per cent of family attachment and home
sickness in order to overcome my weaknesses. Here, I have a plan to overcome such
weaknesses such as continuously chat with family and make video calls through internet and
telephone by using Skype, WhatsApp, and Facebook daily at evening or morning. Then I need
to build quick friendship and peer circle with them. Those will help to overcome such a home
sickness and family attachment weakness. Finally, take stress is another weakness that I have
to overcome. So, here I have a plan to overcome or reduce high stress, find some time to enjoy
with friends like go out or have food from outside or conduct outing or pleasure trips once in
weak and with it do Yoga or Exercises. Those will also help to overcome and reduce such a
weakness of high stress.

As my plan is go to the UK for my further studies, am prone to immigration and visa rules.
Over the recent years the government of UK has been bringing in tight norms thereby making
study in UK expensive and less lucrative. If in any circumstances I am not able to go to UK, I
choose second option Australia. My dream is to build a world largest International brand for
carry bags. For that I will work in a multinational company to learn all business aspects of in
an organization for a three to five years it will contribute me broad information about running
a business successfully. Then I will start my own carry bags company, I want to become the

goals.

me to achieve my personal goals and my organizational objective. As I have made a personal
development plan to improve my skills in my personal life and professional life for my future
