Week 12 Journal

Group Audit Performance Reflection.

I think our group worked well in putting together our audit. We split the categories up with each others strengths and weaknesses in mind. For example, I am a graphic design student so I was assigned to the branding part of the assignment, as well as creating other graphical elements for our promotional activity.

There was a definite leader in our group, Karan. I think it is important to have a group leader in assignments such as this just so there is one person who is a representative of the group and a person who can collect everyone's work and put it together into one document.

However this being said, I think Karan may have become a bit too controlling, for example, when I would design the invite for our promotional activity or create posters, he would end up creating and using his own. I understand that he is a very studious person and he has a very clear idea what he wanted things to look like however, I wish he would have considered using my invitations and posters that we agreed was my job to make.

Apart from group members strong personalities, we managed to work together well, organizing meetings with UCU staff to get information and group meetings to put together our finished document.


What does it mean to be reflective and why.

Reflection is to evaluate a previous activity. It is important to be reflective to improve future activities by looking at what might not have been successful or what could be improved. It can also help indicate to a business what is already successful/profitable and help businesses strategise how they can use these strengths to become more competitive.
