Introduction
This project is about to known the position of individual abilities. In the life of
individual, the skills and abilities have important aspect which helps in defining action and
approaches of individual. Individual abilities are defined as a sensation of knowing how to
achieve something. Individual abilities play an important role in their lives as they strive for
better development and success. Personal development skills such as communication,
problem solving, networking, cooperation, and management are all important throughout a
student's life. Periodicals, workshops, and any other event can help a person develop their
personal abilities. The purpose of development is to gain new knowledge and abilities. It is
also known as the expansion of the circulating role in the organisation (Curwen, Palmer, and
Ruddell, 2018). This project's selected field is personal and professional development, which
is a constant process. Personal development is the process of enhancing one's abilities
through a variety of activities in order to improve one's mental health and financial well-
being. It's a lifetime process that allows people to assess their own strengths and capabilities.
It encourages more people to join the workforce, which helps the company obtain more
skilled and motivated personnel.
How and why have the project workshop activities developed your social and ethical
awareness and responsibility?
I have enrolled in a small project programme where I am learning a range of skills
that will help me grow as a person. From the workshop the first thing I took away was the
emerging individual growth concept. It assists me figure out what traits I already have and
where I can improve them the most. This is somewhat I do on a daily basis and utilise to
develop my personal development approach. I have also acquired knowledge about SWOT
analysis of my personal skills. I will take use of time management skill which I have been
thought by project training in order to use in daily life. (Hansen, Mowen, and Heitger, 2021).
To additional progress this capacity, I've formed a weekly routine that will benefit me to live
a healthier lifestyle, and I've determined that as a student, time management is critical to my
success. I will be able to complete tasks on schedule at all levels of the organisation if I
master this talent, by increasing my efficiency. Through this course, I learned and
experienced the importance of communication skills and abilities. I've discovered that
communication skills are critical in our lives since they define our personalities and

determine how well we interact with others and communicate our feelings to others. I believe
I need to work on honing my communication abilities and capabilities.
This session will undoubtedly aid me in developing my communication skills and
talents, and I have prepared a communication skill or sense of knowledge chart to supports
me in this endeavour (Kim, and Choi, 2018). As a consequence of this workshop's
instruction, I have gained knowledge about societal and virtuous attributes, which will aid me
in improving my own good behaviour and character, as well as understanding my own
activity and its roles in determining whether it is good or bad for society. It happens because
I'm a part of society, and it's my obligation and authority to make sure my work or activity
doesn't harm others. In addition, I learnt about academic and theoretical writing skills and
abilities like summarising, text editing, data analysis, and constructing a table of contents,
among others, which have improved my writing talents and equipped me with a technique of
writing that will help others better understand. Following that, I learned about job skills,
which are critical to my future success. Through this training, I learned about highly critical
talents that play a vital part in an organisation (Leicht, and et.al., 2018). I will be able to
achieve my employment goals by improving these talents. I also studied how to create a CV
and looked at the different levels of creating a decent CV, which will be important for me
because it will expose me and my abilities to an employer's HR manager. After honing my
personal skills, I created a CV that I hope will help me land my dream job. All of these skills
will contribute to the development of my social and ethical consciousness as well as my role
and duties. By completing a SWOT analysis of my own life, I was able to learn that I had
numerous strengths that I could use for the welfare of society. By participating in this session,
I learned about good and bad qualities, which will aid me in developing my societal and
virtuous consciousness as well as rationalising my position and obligation in society (Miller,
G., 2020).
Importance and value of the Appendices (10 Documents) that I have compiled and
provided as part of my portfolio in relation to my development of social and ethical
awareness and responsibility during the module
I've gone over the several appendices since they'll help me maximise my own
potential and provide me with a better understanding of my personal skills and abilities. My
personal SWOT analysis will be one of these appendices, which will help me better
understand my strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (Mone and London, 2018).
By doing so, I am seeking to mitigate my defects or weaknesses by being aware of the

various chances in my life that will certainly benefit me in my future development and
advancement. On the other hand, I've learnt about the social and ethical awareness of
qualities, and I have analysed the positive and negative characteristics as a result. It will assist
me in determining what functions and activities will be beneficial to me and what work
activities will be detrimental to me in order to effectively attain my accountability and
authority in relation to society (Pellá, and et.al., 2018).
Conclusion
It has been concluded from the above that, abilities of individual have important role
in their lives. the individual development and growth are based on abilities in suitable
manner. For the individual communication skill are critical in order to carry obligations and
roles along with obligations and roles towards attitudes and behaviour towards others. The
abilities or sense of knowing of an individual will play a significant role in their lives. Further
development and growth that is appropriately based on an individual's abilities.
