Summary of reflective capabilities and learning, which includes knowing, being and
competencies and four essential capstone skills
Theoretical framework as well as practical experience is the foundation of the learning outcome
which are elementary to the business administration course. The business capstone projects in
this course synthesises knowledge as well as provides evidence of relevant business activities,
which are strongly inclined towards strategic development of business ideas. After the
completion of the course, the students including me will have developed the capability of

demonstrating the attitude of strategic progress. There is evidence that the capstone projects has
also helped me to integrate my theoretical as well as functional knowledge which are strongly
needed for performing my job role in any organisation as well as implement problem solving
strategies in any workplace atmosphere. The practical sessions of the capstone project help me to
develop the professional skills for in-depth analysis of the bigger business issues. Understanding
the real business issues helps a professional to analyse the problem from various perspective
before undertaking a decision, which other peer members will not be able to understand. This is
what helps me to develop the confidence that I have the abilities of performing in the job role of
a business manager. This project definitely helped me to develop the most required competencies
as well as skills for making professional advancement in the modern organisations. Blackford
and Shi (2015), highlights that in recent times or in future, the most important aspect for
professional development in the organisations, will be the capability of solving the regular
structural challenges that come in context of the complex business environment. In this context, I
can specifically mention the KDB learning model. Analysing the learning outcomes under the
capstone projects of the MBA course by considering this Framework helps me to demonstrate
the importance of the course for the future career advancement of the students. This Framework
is is actually an illustration of the three aspects of knowing, doing and being which are activities
emphasizing different business perspectives. Firstly, knowing refers to the conception of various
theoretical approaches regarding how to deliver best performance in managerial job roles.
Parallely, this course incorporates practical application of the theoretical concepts in typical
problematic situations which requires specific leadership skills. In the end, being highlights the
personal values that are implemented in professional context for fulfilment of business goals as
well as self-realization.
