I have focused on three main activities, Recruitment and selection, Learning and Development and Performance Management and also discussed the impact of legislation on each activity. 3 RECRUITMENT AND Selection It is essential to maintain a well-founded recruitment and selection process to employ the “Right people with the right skills.” Both internal and external factors, such as economics, skill shortages, and the organisations short term and future goals have to be considered. Workforce planning is implemented and constantly reviewed to keep the company up to date and competitive within a changing economy. CIPD Factsheet (Workforce Planning, revised Oct 2015).

...Activity 1 The training session is designed for adults, therefore is autonomous and self-directed, discussions are encouraged with and between the participants, as their own experience is an important resource. This helps with the learning cycle, as they are asked to think about a concrete situation, reflect on it, afterwards we move on to the theory and we finish by planning what they would do differently next time. In order to appeal to different learning styles, different methods are used in this training. We have a case study, group discussions, an established theory and a video. Several factors that may affect learning are considered to help the learners to achieve the objectives. Firstly, individual factors, i.e. prior knowledge, the presentation starts with a short discussion of the concept of ‘Time Management’ (TM) to find out what information needed to pre-teach before jumping into the actual lesson. Another individual factor is motivation; people who are motivated to learn something generally succeed, even if they have to work hard to do so. The benefits are highlighted at the beginning of the presentation in order to make it relevant to the participants and increase their motivation. Secondly, environmental factors, i.e. physical conditions, the room layout should be appropriate, with good lighting, comfortable temperature and ventilation; and trainer’s approach, where the session should have a participatory climate to facilitate learning. The training session...
