MANAGEMENT 3
Introduction
In the recent time, I am pursuing master of management for engineers. When I made
the poster during the course of civil engineering, I came to know how to make posters. I also
came to know how to link the ideas. At the same time, this course has also given me

The main aim of the report is to get the knowledge, skills and achievement in my field
in order to excel myself in varied areas. In the recent time, design thinking plays an essential

have seen that active listening tends to build deep trust among the members who work
together. Effective listening not only reduces the risk of mistakes and misunderstanding but
also saves money and time by ensuring the success of the task of communication (Madera,
Dawson & Neal, 2014). From this, I have learned that active listening is required for ensuring
effective communication. At the same time, significant speaking skills also play a significant
role while working with people in the group project (Hwang et al, 2016). Due to this, it is
