(Solution) 5C003 strengths, weaknesses and development areas, in relation to people practice (AC 3.2)
Solution
Q9. With reference to your reflections and feedback at Q7, and your research at Q8, assess your current strengths, weaknesses and development areas in relation to people practice. (AC 3.2)
You don’t need to provide a reference or in-text citation for AC 3.2.
According to my reflections and responses on Question 7 and the research on Question 8, I have established a number of strengths, weaknesses, and the most important areas of development concerning my people practice.
My key strengths are the inclusion approach and interpersonal skills. I also engage others working in different departments actively and establish a psychologically safe atmosphere in which others can express their opinions comfortably. This indicates my skill in establishing trust, appreciating diversity, and encouraging teamwork which are the essential qualities of successful people practice. I am also adaptable and curious and show readiness to learn and change, which will be critical as the HR profession will grow more strategic and technology-focused.
Nevertheless, one of my major weaknesses that I have identified is that I am inclined to solicit the help of people who are more familiar to me, which narrows the range of various opinions that I can rely on. Another critical skill that I lack is confidence and experience in applying people analytics and data to impact strategic decisions, which has become an important skill in the changing people profession.
