MANAGEMENT
Introduction
Employment and leadership attributes shape the key skills, competencies and abilities,
which a leader needs to possess. At the initial stage, they assist the students in polishing their
skills, expertise and knowledge. This is through the provision of comprehensive guidance
about the true essence of leadership; transferrable skills, knowledge and behaviour and
indicators of effective leadership potential (Covelli & Mason, 2017). As a matter of
specification, Employability and Leadership Attributes suffices the need for the development
of online Student Development Portal. Typical components of this Portal are supportive
activities and modules, which help in inculcating self-awareness, leadership capabilities and
employability skills. This assignment attempts to develop a reflective journal on the attribute
of learning, which sharpens the preconceived skills, expertise and knowledge.
Insight into Employment and Leadership Attributes
There are seven employment and leadership attributes- set direction, engage, drive,
collaborate, learn, innovate and acting with integrity. I think the division of these attributes
in three levels of capable individuals, emerging leaders and strategic leaders is a systematic
approach towards enhancement of the skills, abilities and competencies (Price, 2011). These
levels are further mapped according to typical application, contents and future application.
This mapping is executed through the consideration of cumulative model, which I think is apt
in terms of demonstrating the knowledge, skills and behaviour expected from the emerging
leaders and capable individuals. I can relate the day to day practice and cognitive learning
with the contents of the attributes. According to my opinions, the examples of self-reflection,
preparing for the interviews and self-assessments elucidate each of the attributes.
