Activity 2:
Ensuring Individual Capability and readiness in delivering the activity
The process of delivering learning and development session was an initiative I had not been actively involved in the past. The far I had gone is delivery of a presentation and as such the delivery activity was significantly out of my comfort arena. I wanted to ensure that I was on the appropriate path and as such, I had to ask my colleagues for their critical assistance, and they assessed their notes to note if there was any point that I had failed to include in my presentation. Additionally, it took me a significant amount of time in making the most appropriate decision on my practice and what I was supposed to deliver during my session. In my selection, I had decided to present on the factors of employee retention and how the employee’s competencies impact it.

This was one of the most significant guidance I received that improved my activity and ended up presenting my lesson with considerable conviction.
Ensuring Availability of Space, Equipment’s, and resources for the activity As a best practice in providing that I had enough space in the process of my live presentation, I first double checked the list I had for my class in making sure that there existed sufficient space in the room to accommodate all of them.
