2.4.6. Summary of Learning2.4.6.1. Skills and Qualification:-I have gained the practical knowledge from the internship. The internship program is very helpful for me as far as learning is concern. I have got my experience that contributed in my learning. I learnt variety of skills and qualification. I have learnt how to behave with employees in different situations. The interaction between employees should be friendly, so that employee can feel comfortable while sharing his problems. And we are here to facilitate them, not for ordering them to do as we like. During the increase in workload, I got to know how to complete tasks. When workers are satisfied then they become loyal towards the organization. Organizations success depends on the devotions of workers. If you are unable to keep your employees satisfied then it is not productive for any organization. Another skill I have learnt is the adaption. The process of adjustment is very tough; one should have to be flexible to induct himself into their system. It built interpersonal skills. . I have learnt how to behave with senior managers. In human resource department and accounts department I have learnt about the very important Database HRIS and ORACLE.I learnt how to work on them and what is the use of these two in their department. I also learned to supportive and cooperative with colleagues and supervisors.2.4.6.2. Responsibilities during the Internship:-I undertook a number of responsibilities on the base of department I have worked in. During my internship period in HR department I was given a number of responsibilities such as preparing and approving leaves.

Influences on My Future Career Plans:-Internship play very important role in influencing my future career plan. This will help me in certain ways. During my internship I got experience in field of finance because it is related to my specialization in MBA. It will also help me in start of my career to get job in any organization. I have also built some network while working in industry which is quite supportive in every way. According my thinking it was very necessary to have practical exposure in industry with my degree so that I have some practical experience of field work. This internship gives me a chance to gain practical knowledge with my theoretical knowledge. I also get a chance to correlate the theory of my course with the industrial problem and their solutions. Definitely this all will make a positive and effective impact on my future plans.2.4.6.4. Internship activities Correlation with My classroom Knowledge:-Internship activities are very much correlated with class room knowledge. I thought bookish knowledge is very different from what is happening practically in different organization but this internship changed my views. There was a practical implementation of the knowledge that in have gained in my classroom. As far as I am doing my specialization in finance I have spent some weeks in HR department due to some reasons so I knew what happed in HR department, and same was going on there. Although I did not seen any planning or training session there, but management was functioning. I realized how much communication skills are important for professional life. The practical implementation was observed. Such as when it comes to financial knowledge, subjects like analysis of financial statement and financial accounting helped me to understand receipts, payments and financial statements and to have a thorough study of invoices, vouchers and financial statements which helped me to understand its performance over past years. Financial accounting study enabled me to understand the work of accounts department. Therefore, it can be concluded that classroom knowledge was quite helpful during my internship period.3. Conclusion3.1. Summary of Key Conclusions:-Internship is very important element in our MBA course. I have learned too much from internship. At start i dont know the practical implication of this knowledge but i learn how to prepare, how to present and who to implement the knowledge. Internship not only increases our knowledge but also play a vital role for having job in any respectable organization. It is conducted as experience of field work. It enables us to face hard time because many of us struggle for their internship, especially when we go for finding the organization of your interest.The management of Service Industry Limited is very cooperative. The assigned me task and keep me busy in learning different things. The provide guidance and support in difficulties. On the whole, this internship was a useful experience. I have gained new knowledge, skills and met many new people. I achieved several of my learning goals, however for some the conditions did not permit.3.2. General Observations about the Sector:-As an internee draws the following about Service: They are facilitating their employees very well. They have already done a lot of for their workers. They utilizing their workers efficiently to cut down their cost. There are very strict rules of company for their employees. HR department is doing very well. They have been able to attract pool of skilled labor and retaining it. The security system is very alert and strong in service industry. Factorys infrastructure is not attractive, especially the offices and building of the company. There is a lot of work for the staff to do. They dont have relaxation time, even able to complete their daily activities.

3.3. SWOT analysis of organization:-It is very important for any organization to know about its strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats to compete in the industry. So, by the help of environmental analysis and organizational structure I can find out the opportunities and threats and strengths and weaknesses.Strengths: Cost Advantage: Lower costs are leads to higher profits for service. A low cost leader can undercut the rivals on price. Only few companies has cost department and service is one of them who has independent cost department. Cost department control over per unit with all aspects such as material cost, labor cost, rates controlled by bill verification. Latest technology: They have advanced technology and modern equipment that helped them in producing goods. Employee benefits and reward:SIL is providing health, pension and transport facilities to its employees. Efficient Procurement department: Procurement department is working very efficiently in transferring the inputs into outputs. Customer loyalty: Customers are loyal to Service Industry. Instead of targeting all customers they only need to target new customers in order to grow their business. Brand Name: A strong brand is major strength of service. This gives the ability to charge higher prices for their products because customers place additional value in the brand. Business portfolio:Service is producing variety of products that reduces the risk of company. Having company's own outlets all over the country. Heavy export of service industry. Having good relations with its suppliers. Company has vast experience in shoe manufacturing. Weaknesses:- Lack of new products:SIL is not introducing new products these days. Less promotional activities:The majority of people are not well aware about the products of SIL. It is due to their very low services of promotional activity. Centralized decision making:The decisions are made by the upper management which is weakness of the SIL, because authority is not delegated to branch level. Manager cannot take initiative regarding different decisions. They cannot work freely. Resistance to change:There is very frequent change in design, technology, process and marketing due to branded footwear availability in the market. The service is not well known as making fashion oriented brand.Opportunities: Innovation: Great innovation can help service to produce unique products and services that meet customers needs. New technology: New technology helps them to better meet their customer needs with new and improved products. Technology also builds competitive barriers against rivals. Low price: Company can introduce low price product in the market because high percentage of population belongs to lower class. Replacement of infrastructure:SIL has to replace the old infrastructure with new one for best working environment. Provide better online shopping facilities. Threats: Political risk: Politics can increase risk factors because governments can quickly change business rules that negatively effect on Service. Government regulations: Changes to government rules and regulations pay negative impact on the industry. Substitute products:The availability of substitute products hurts service industrys ability to raise prices because customers can easily switch to another product. Competition:Competition is going to increase because of setting up modern units elsewhere and entrance of multinational companies in local market. Political instability:Pakistan is a country that politically is not stable. There is not stable government. This has great impact on industrialists and investors. Service industry has threat due to political instability because in instable government there is rapid change in laws, rules and regulations. Economic threat:The service industries have to face economic threats. The first economic threat is high prices of electricity. Another threat is rate of inflation, which causes rise in prices of things. In recent years, oil prices have gone up due to which it has increased transportation cost which increases the cost of production.

4. Recommendations:-After a thorough analysis of financial performance and operations of Service Industry Limited Gujrat during internship, I want to draw following suggestions and recommendations for the industry. Footwear industry is highly fashioned industry so company should bring innovations in its products according to new trends and fashions. The advertisement should be at large scale of Service products, on the famous channels to greed the people of target market. The company must reduce its operating expenses in order to compete in the market on price basis operating expenses are controllable factor. Company must pay a continuous attention to quality of products so that competitor may not surpass it. The company should increase their exports to all over the world through participate in expo festivals. The HR department should arrange programs for motivation of employees and the selection of employees should be on merit not on references. Prices of Service products are high because now in the market there are China shoes and other competitor companies, so they need to reduce their prices. They should have to decentralize the management decision. That will build trust on low level managers and they will be confident and work with devotion. The Service shoes should start to sale its product through online, which can improve its sale as well as its profits. It is also a good image for the customers that the company is involved in online business and easy to access. Through this way company can also compete at good scale with its competitors. Different training courses should be arranged for the uplifting and improving quality of work for employees. There should be a monthly magazine of Service products in which the company can give awareness about the good features of the products of company and new features and designs.
