I am quick learner and that is my greatest strength as I can quicklylearn new things (No, Tel and Prior, 2018). But I need to work on multi-tasking skill as this isalso an important skill required for effectively managing the business operations and activities. Ialso possess good knowledge about the procedures and policies of business and I am even aneffective team player. But I lack in effectively solving the problems and also poor in managingthe time effectively. The personal skill audit also suggested that I have capability for bringingnew and creative ideas that can help me to achieve great things in my personal and professionalcareer. I have even scored great in people management skill according the audit of personalskills, but, I scored less in motivational and leadership skill. I possess good knowledge andunderstanding about technical elements and also have effective negotiation skill, but, I need towork on improving risk management skill. Thus, I need to focus on multi-tasking skill, problem-solving skill, risk management, effective time- management skill and leadership skill.Personal SWOT AnalysisSWOT analysis is the strategic management tool which helps in identification of theinternal strengths and weaknesses and also help in the identification of external opportunities andthreats.
