LinkedIn Learning modules
Critical thinking
The first module helped in learning crucial thinking approaches so that I can make better
decisions. This aspect plays a crucial role in professional growth and employability because with
critical analysis it is possible for me to express myself, my perspective and ideas freely without
any restrictions. In order to make better communication with others as well as to accomplish
tasks with more creativity it is required that one must be able to critically think and react. With
the help of module, I got chance to develop understanding that for achieving success I must not
accept everything in flow instead I must develop ability to question and to critically judge the
problems and decisions. It will not only make the performance better but will also help me to
identify my own mistakes and to explore the possibilities of improvements.
Critical thinking ability which I developed in the module can also help me in improving
my academic skills because in higher education and research work critical nature is considered as
important cognitive skill for improving the decision making ability as well as capacity to think in
more rational and logical way. Thus it will enhance educational outcomes as well as professional
skills which can provide more competitive and performance benefits while dealing with
professional challenges. Critical thinking is also necessary for developing more in depth
understanding of own needs and goals as well as to motivate self for achieving those goals
(Jankelová, Joniaková and Mišún, 2021).
Relationship management:
Relationship management is one of the core skill which not only helps in business or
professional context but is also necessary for social and personal dynamics. It is required that
individuals must have capabilities to build good social and professional network so that as team
desired goals can be achieved. Through the learning from the modules I used to learn that in
order to grow one must be able to align and cooperate with others because professional success
cannot be measured by individual efforts instead it is measured by collective efforts.
Relationship management can be of great use for my professional development. In future
when I will work in teams then I will need to demonstrate certain skills or behaviour so that I am
not engaged in conflicts or awkward situations. The lack of ability to communicate or socialise
or build long term relation with others can have adverse impact on my performance (Moghimi
