Analysis of Skills, Reflective Journals, and Development Plan

This homework assignment presents a self-assessment and personal development plan focused on key professional skills. The student analyzes their skills in team working, effective communication, and negotiation through reflective journal entries. Each entry follows a pro-forma, exploring the importance of the skill, current competence, contradictions in self-perception, and future applications. The student uses feedback from peers and tutors, along with relevant theories like Belbin's team role inventory and Black & Mouton's managerial grid, to support their analysis. The goal is to identify strengths and weaknesses, and to develop a plan for improvement, ultimately enhancing workplace performance and reducing conflicts. The assignment highlights the importance of these skills for future career success and outlines strategies for continuous development.
