"Task 3Developing Workforce“Workforce development” is an essential component of community economic development inany economic climate. The term has come to describe a relatively wide range of activities,policies and programs employed by geographies to create, sustain and retain a viableworkforce that can support current and future business and industry. Beyond this generalunderstanding, it is difficult to gain a consensus as to the definition of workforcedevelopment, perhaps because each user of the term approaches it from a differentperspective. (Haralson, 2010)1. Effective Monitoring during Probation periodThe candidate is monitored under a work specific module that imbibes both training andeducation. In this way, the individual is positioned in such a way that he or she is placedtowards the path of success together with the overall effective work place climate.Probationary period enables an individual to learn through teamwork and evolve as a fullyresponsible employee. The travel from a trainee to employee is dynamic and multi fold. For example, let’s say an employee is struggling to complete monthly reports, sometimeshanding them in late or failing to include the necessary information. After a couple ofcoaching sessions, the employee is placed on probation for six months. During this time, theemployee will meet with his or her supervisor each week to review progress on the monthlyreports and go over questions and concerns. The supervisor will provide detailed feedbackand coaching. (Okun, 2016)2. Additional Training and Development NeedsAfter feedback and coaching, it will be noted how the trainee reflects upon it. Merely givingthe feedback is not enough. The next step is to monitor how he or she responds to thosefeedbacks. It is that ability and zeal that will safeguard the candidates position in thecompany. If a candidate works upon the feedback, yet does not show that much progress as is expectedfrom him or her, the supervisor will try his level best to ensure that the candidate gets anotheropportunity to prove his or her worth. But logically speaking, this can’t be a never endingprocess with chances being given to one person again and again. As any company would relyon equitable distribution of opportunities, it is also the responsibility of the individual to try9 his or her level best. Human resource management can work with proportionate mixing ofboth ability and opportunity. Therefore, a zealous candidate is what the company expects.3. Assessment and DeliberationFurther assessment of the individual guarantees a substantial turn in the recruitment processnot just for the company but also for the individual. The company is not just interested infilling up a vacant post. It is more interested to filling up the post with an able person withinnovative ideas. 3.1 National StandardsThe relevance of national standards is not just restricted to products that are created. It alsoincludes the quality of services rendered. Any output becomes a product only when it ismerged with good services. Viable options as well as innovative ideas are combined to createa product which will then cater towards the goodwill of the company.3.2 Quality RequirementsBefore setting up a fully-fledged medium for the creation of a product, it is important todevelop a benchmark for weighing the quality of all those services that go into the making ofthe product. The company devises effective tools to create quality products as well as qualityservices. This ensures the success of the company more than profit-making. 3.3 Workers and quality kite marksAs mentioned earlier, relevant benchmarks are set up under which workers are assessed fortheir full potential and ability? These benchmarks or kite marks are initiated in such a waythat they fulfil the requirements of the company as well as act as a viable medium for thecandidate to function accordingly. When this collaboration works as it is expected, that kitemark becomes the trademark standard for the company. Policy making is one important toolfor the smooth functioning of this benchmark.Finally, it is important for the company to secure its position within the business environmentas an employee friendly and quality assured enterprise. The sole propriety of the company isto create quality assured labour or workforce and an equally standardized and efficientproduct services.10 11 Task 4Report on importance of leadership and leadership theories in health and social care.Leadership is the social process through which one person is able to influence others throughhis actions and behaviour. It is a needed quality to lead a team at because that person shouldbe able to make others do the work they might be interested or not. The person who leads isthe one who shows his team a clear vision and crave out a path that he builds and othersfollow. They are the one who shows the path and be the inspiration. The clear vision helpspeople in following the direction in which the organization needs to achieve, consistent withvision, values and strategies. (McGuire, 2008)Effective leaders in health and social care sector emphasizes on safety, high quality of theirservices, and compassionate care. They would make sure that the patient voice is heard at alllevels, his experience, concerns, needs are constantly attended to and proper feedback isprovided to them. The qualities of being supportive, empathic and respectful empower theirleadership quality. They always promote participation and involve their group and teammembers. Along with the patients they also make sure that staff’s problems and needs arealso attended to. They also make sure that staffs that work under them are clear about whatthey need to do and helps them in their work as well as by giving them advices and guidance.Whenever they find any under-performance or any aggressive behaviour from theiremployees, they are the ones who make sure that there would be proper solution for it. Theywould also be the ones promoting continuous development of knowledge, skills and abilitiesas to make improvement in them. They also make sure that the decision-making process ofthe team involves contribution from each member of the team. There is a need for different approaches of leadership that are to be used in development ofleadership in this sector. The development of leadership depends upon experience as well asappropriate skill and ability. There comes the argument of collective leadership which is theone characterized by shared leadership with formal hierarchy and flow of power. As we allknow that health and social care sector needs to have leadership that has cooperation acrossboundaries (both within and outside) organization. The healthcare must be delivered by thisinterdependent network of organization. It requires the leaders to work together surpassingthe effects of boundaries and work towards the common goal of proper patient care.
