TASK 1
Analysis of leadership style
(Covered in PPT)
TASK 2
Reflection
Reflection writing is an important aspect in the learning of any individual where one can
think back about any experience and then critically evaluate that what learning was developed
(Dhaliwal, Singh and Singh, 2017). The entire process of reflection is done in order to develop
an understanding regarding what were the key findings or learning and how can these be further
developed in future.
Gibbs reflective model is an effective reflection model that can be used in the current
process of self evaluation. It has six stages and each stage addresses a different aspect of the
entire experience making it an elaborative and exhaustive model (Mohd-Yusof, Helmi & Phang,
2018). I think the Gibbs model will be the most suitable for the task that is to be performed i.e.
reflecting on the learning that I developed through the completion of the task to evaluate
leadership and skills of Jack Ma. Throughout these six stages, I will critically discuss the entire
process and identify that what were my key learning’s that can influence skill development in me
as well.
Description: In this foremost stage of Gibbs cycle, I will simply describe the events that took
place and the conditions surrounding the entire experience. I will simply state the facts and any
analysis or interpretation will not be done at this stage (Rubens and et.al., 2018). I have to reflect
on the presentation that I gave earlier on the leadership style and skills of Jack Ma where I have
to reflect on how this helped in the development of my own employability skills. I can
adequately state that the entire task of giving a presentation is a comprehensive process where I
was required to cover all the key aspects of leadership skills depicted by Jack Ma and I also have
to evaluate how these helped in my development. Although the presentation was an individual
work but yet I had to collect different information and the most important aspect was to present
all the information before the audience without making the presentation too long or uninteresting
(Tanaka, Okamoto and Koide, 2018). Hence, I can say that while completing the task of giving
presentation has effective contributed in development of my skills as well and this was the key
point of emphasis of the entire task.
