Introduction
It is very essential to understand some of the skills that are important in order to develop a
business. There are certain essential skills that have been acquired during learning of the module
it consists of the free referencing is being done in order to analyse the sources of deriving a
particular specific information (Yildiz, 2017). Further, there is discussion on the reflective
writing for the purpose of developing a detailed view point on self analysis. Group presentation
is very important skill that needs to be developed in order to understand what some basic
requirements of performing together are. It also helps and learning the teamwork and developing
skills of high amount of coordination. Present report is also discussing about the skills that have
been learnt so far and how it can help in developing the further skills that are very important in
the coming future course of time.
TASK 1
How and why skills have been developed
There are many different activities that have been conducted in the whole scenario that has
helped in developing of the necessary skills.
Group presentation skills:
Group presentation skill is the skill that has been acquired because of regular presentation that
has been assigned in the course of my regular class work (Myers, & Chou, 2016). . They were
the part of regular assessment that was assigned by my teacher so that I am able to perform and
develop my views on a specific topic.
Learning skills:
There are certain aspects related to developing learning skills. There different types of learner
like visual learner, audio learner and kinaesthetic learner. It is very important to analyse the type
of learner that is present in order to acquire various learning’s in the course.
Effective reading:

Reading is a part of classroom activities and it is continuously involved in the teachers and the
students. There is always a difference between learning and effective learning, because of all the
several tasks I was able to acquire a certain skills in order to understand is the process of
effective reading and acquiring benefits from a particular reading that is being made regularly
(Buluş, Atan& Sarıkaya, 2017). . I was taught about how important can be symbols while
making a reading and understand that reading is an active process in which the reader has to
regularly shift between different sources of the information and understanding strategies to check
their detail interpretation and for the using social context to focus the overall response.
Communication:
I was also able to develop a detailed understanding about the different types of communication
that is verbal and nonverbal communication. I was able to understand the PowerPoint
presentations with the help of nonverbal communication were easily able to understand. It was
related to body languages voice eye contact and the distance (Ahmed, 2016). . On the other hand
I also understood that nonverbal communication is related with behaviour fashion touch and
emotions. So I was able to completely understand the basic scenario of effective communication
that is resultant of the process of exchanging thoughts knowledge ideas and information in the
best possible way. Further there are some features of effective communication that has to be
compulsory present in order to make a message clear and for the both sender and receiver.
Reflective writing:
Self evaluation is one of the most important techniques that must be present in every individual
and I learn this technique where I was given assignment related to develop some self reflections.
This help me in making a detailed analysis of myself and understanding different perspective on
where I am presently lacking and which areas I have to work on in order to develop my skills.

TASK 2
Challenges and expectations from the university course
There are several challenges also that were faced in the course of completing this assignment.
Challenge:
The biggest challenges that I felt was having insufficient time because there were so many skills
and high amount of activities that were assigned and this resulted in Limited availability of time
to assign each of these activities. At the same time I was able to not prioritise my things because
there were many such activities that were really very important and I wasn't able to understand to
which activity to perform first and which to last (Betta, 2016). . These were some of the issues
for the there was some internal conflicts that occurred while we were present in group
presentations and this had a negative impact on the mental state of many people. This is also a
big challenge that has to be dealt in order to overcome and have a positive attitude towards all
the group members with required amount of coordination to be maintained while we are making
a group presentation.
Expectations:
There are several expectations from the university course that is I will be able to develop and
analyse myself as a individual and for the my communication skills will be enhanced (Ronaldo,
2020). All the states that I have learnt till now like the referencing skill set reflection, effective
writing, effective reading will help me in future course of all my business activities that and also
my management degree.
Main body
Three major objectives of course:
1) To understand the importance of effective communication and significance in dealing with
5

some strategies like employee management team building strong relationships and facilitation of
innovation and creativity.
2) Understand and make better decisions by intensifying the public relations and also at the same
time enhancing a problem solving ability. That can help in corporate development and growth.
3) I am also expecting from this course some necessary skills that are needed building up strong
business relationships in order to enhance the possibilities of interaction by positively motivating
my future workforce to perform better and they are able to maintain long-term relationship with
the organisation.

Conclusion
From the above discussed report it can be said that effective communication is one of the
most important key to success and it is helping in reduction of misunderstanding and ascertaining
the development of trust & transparency at the same point of time. There are several barriers that
might occur in the way of effective learning but these have to be overcome so that there can be
achievement of proper business objectives in the future and there can be properly completion of
the Management degree in order to establish and achieve success in future business
