Resourcing and Talent Planning Question 1 1.1 Labour Market Trends in the U.K. and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) Structural changes that have been caused by reduced talent pool attributed to the increase in aging population, decrease in birth rates and increase in life expectancy have significantly impacted the labor market in the U.K. This is against the increased need for organizations to have highly skilled, and adaptable workforce to be able to compete in the contemporary labor market favorably.

REFLECTION AND PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN Reflective Essay When most people hear about Jack Stahl, they immediately think about the well-known story of how his mentor and predecessor, Mr. Ivester, stayed up with him till 2 am in the night to plug holes in a prospectus he had delegated without providing adequate detail.

When I first read the story, I set out to find a scenario where he applied this teaching to see it in action. The situation I have been considering as part of my growth in leadership is the growth experienced in Stahl’s tenure as head of Coca-Cola’s North American division, where he was tasked with growing an already excellent region’s revenues. The scenario above piques my interest as it is an embodiment of the career of the business leader, which Stahl has become. This embodiment is visible in the fact that he always led to increased output from the staff he inherited. This trend was proven right even in a company where…

volunteering work at organization Z I have been involved with volunteering work at organization Z, where I was the Sustainability Manager, where I was tasked with improving the organization’s social and environmental impact. I proposed and implemented the use of biofuels, an alternative energy, to the organization to cut back on the carbon emission that was their main challenge in complying with the environmental laws. I also doubled as a GIS consultant for organization Z, which is a non-profit conservationist organization, where I tabulated the changing extents of erosion in various rivers in a bid to check the severity of the problem. This data was used in planning and executing the restoration programs of these rivers to control the erosion. My most notable contribution as a GIS specialist has been the tracking and accurate mapping of a cholera infection in the remote areas of Ghana. This was done in conjunction with a team of epidemiologists with the main aim of predicting the spread of the disease. This was accurately carried out and significantly contributed to the quick response of the…

The success of my leadership will be measured by the success I have helped others to make in their lives. For the success of a true leader is not measured in…
