Self-reflection- A short discussion
Self-reflection is concept or design to identify the learning and knowledge which is gained by
doing an assignment on Apple Inc Company. With the help of the assignment, various
information and knowledge are developed about specific event and task. In the self-reflection, all
the skills, knowledge, information and details are discussed which is developed while doing the
assignment.
Learning
With the help of self-reflection progress in person’s skills, knowledge and qualities while
performing any specific task, event and assignment (Hoque, 2013). I gained in-depth knowledge
of Apple Inc Company and improve my skills. In this, I have analyzed my performance and
progress by doing the assignment.
Acquire Theoretical knowledge
I gained wide theoretical knowledge which helps me to build a strong base of theoretical
knowledge. There are so many concepts and strategies implemented in the assignment that helps
to improve my skills. I have examined different research design that helps in conducting research
in a most appropriate manner to attain better outcomes. Cross-sectional, case study,
experimental, descriptive, and explorative is some research design that helps to determine the
gap between standard and actual research (Cottrell, 2017). Apart from this, I have analyzed
different methods of research which are qualitative and quantitative that enhances theoretical
knowledge in an effective way.
Skill to convert the academic knowledge to practical considerations
By doing this assignment, I develop strong academic knowledge that helps in future personal and
professional life. This assignment helps me to build writing a research proposal that enhances my
theoretical knowledge and information related to the evaluation of different particle event and
task. I have gained in-depth theoretical knowledge that helps in performing various different
activities to achieve best outcomes effectively. While doing this assignment I have increased my
skills to convert my academic knowledge into practice for achieving the best result. I consider
3

several concept and strategies to examining the current financial as well as operational position
of Apple Inc Company in the large competitive marketplace. For gaining wide knowledge and
information I implement different concept and strategies such as sampling for implementing new
idea and strategies in an organisation which will help me to gain fresh knowledge.
Time management skills
In today’s tough competitive environment time management skills play a very important role to
manage professional, personal as well as social responsibilities that help to attain better outcomes
(Argote, 2012). This assignment improves my time management skills through which I can
easily complete any future research in fixed time. I have analyses that time management skill
help to gain so many benefits and growth opportunities.
Skills associated with the sampling process
To complete research in the most appropriate way it is a major responsibility to select suitable
selection that helps to achieve set target and outcomes. For any kind of research, sampling plays
a very important role to collect and gather required data about the selected study. With the help
of theoretical knowledge, I have to implement random sampling method for collecting accurate
and required data for the achieving best result.
Analytical and evaluation skills
In research there is so many graphs, statically data is used for which evaluation, as well as
Analytical skills, is required. With the help of evaluation skill, I can easily analyze the collected
data in proper manner. While doing this research I enhance my evaluation and analytical skills
that help my future research work. With the help of analytical and evaluation skill research can
interpret collect data in a suitable manner to attain better outcomes.
Summarising as well as writing skills
In this assessment research proposal and literature review is developed by me that increase my
summarising as well as writing skills. To complete research work in the proper way writing and
summarising skills is necessary to set outcomes. My both writing and summarising skills are
4

increased by doing this assessment in most suitable manner. The reader can understand all facts
and concept in a proper way if content written in a systematic way.
Interview and other human resource management skills
To gather important and required data for research I need to conduct the different interview in a
proper way. To achieve set outcomes it is necessary to manage interview and human
management skills for collecting right and accurate data related to the selected study topic. There
is survey and questionnaire method is used to collect right data for which it is essential for to
perform interview in a suitable manner and manage human resource management. I understand
the importance of human resource management skills for achieving better outcomes in research.
Skills to consider ethical issues
It is a major responsibility of research to collect required data and information from selected
participants and various interviews in an ethical way. Research must understand the importance
of ethical research to protect the interest of society and selected participants. I have examined
that ethical factor plays a very important role in research while implementing different concept
and principles during research.
Skill to reflection own’s progress
It is very complex and difficult for me to examine my own performance and progress that can
influence my professional life in both positive as well as negative way. I have developed writing
skills, evaluation skill, time management skills and human management skills that help me in
future to address different issues and the problem of research.
Future prospects of skills developed and learning gained
Above mentioned developed skills such as time management skill, evaluation skill, writing skill
and human resource management skill assist me in professional life. With the help of these skills,
I can manage any difficult situation and task in future at my workplace to achieve best outcomes.
These sills also help me to take right decision to resolve any issues and problem that arises in the
workplace. All these help me to improve my professional as well as personal life through which I

can easily attain set goals in an effective manner. There are various benefits of these skills for me
as they help me achieve social, professional and personal goals in certain time.
