Critical Reflection of Personal Strengths and Weaknesses

Graduate skills are the skills gained by my graduates in the university. These skills are of a wide range and include but not limited to critical thinking, problem-solving, oral communication, written communication, teamwork, collaboration, digital technology, leadership, professionalism, work ethics, career management. All these skills are efficiently relevant to the working environment, and as a graduate, I focus on all of them, putting in mind they are the pillars of success at the workplace. In addition, I put into consideration the occupational standard that relies on these skills for effective service delivery.

These Occupational Standards (OS) are basic statements and requirements that use the knowledge that has been acquired in the university to enhance chances of being employed in the working environment. The standards also use the skills and learning experiences, and behaviour required for contraction in a particular job or task (Lloyd, Moawad, and Kadry 2017). All the graduate and occupational skills make me viable in the employment world as the competencies I possess are crucial for any position I qualify for. Considering the competency, they are set of specific skills or abilities and capabilities needed to do a specific job such as administrative assistant. These competencies, such as competence in leadership, make it crucial for me to ensure that I take full responsibility and ensure that all tasks are entirely done and achieved.

The occupation standard utilizes the ability to complete the duties given in a working environment, and these are only achieved by graduate skills that enhance time management and self-discipline. I have applied these skills in all positions I have held and ensured proper work delivery that satisfies the job requirements.

The graduate skills and competencies use the knowledge application obtained at the university to relate with the required occupational standards. Each specific work environment has its specific requirement.

I embrace the fact that professionalism is never static. As a professional, I embrace improving my skills, competencies, and skills I have competitive and on-demand in the developing employment world. I focus on the Career development theory, which narrows down on collecting all the study paths and comparing career paths. I believe that acquiring more professional documents is critical, and with that, I have a bachelor's hon in management, which tops up in what I have in the management industry. I must ensure that I have continuous exploration and development of career-related adjustments in the future development trajectory.

Success is celebrated, and behaviour is portrayed by all means to be positive so long as it is work-related. It aims to make me fit for the constantly developing career and professional scene. I have efficient certification in computer technology and this. Still, with the constantly new updates in technological advancements, I have updated my computer proficiency to ensure that I cope with the existing trends. This promising trajectory makes me stable to handle and offer professional services at all positions that require my services. As a person, I could be a competent and good fit for a specific career and provide crucial information needed on how to attain and gain a particular promising trajectory.

Applying all the five theories in the career development of Work-Adjustment skills and competencies, vocational or training personalities in the job Environment, Self-conceptualization, and the cognitive career progression makes it possible for me to have a good work relationship that embraces the required skills. In addition, the in-service training is critical to check on the delivery of the services that make me solely outstanding regarding the effectiveness of work delivery.

I have followed all the career development stages in career professional development. This includes the critical five main Stages of exploring the impact and level of the profession and establishing a plan that ensures career progression is achieved. Similarly, the mid-career and late-career make me have the competencies and skills for work delivery. However, the skills just as well are related to the prevailing needs and future needs. Therefore, the future needs are comprehensive and contemporary, therefore, demands for frequent refresher courses that make it up to date with the future.

Under the career development, I have personal improvements such as certification in project management, library services, and lifesaving skills in children, enabling me to have all the external competencies that make me outstanding among many.

But with the emerging divergencies in the employment world, I have managed to study three more languages to make myself competitive globally and serve foreign clients that do not understand my primary language.

Additionally, I have increased my professional knowledge and training to increase my earnings as a professional manager. I also aim at improving low-functioning work processes or relationships with new experiences to attain leadership roles.

Critical Evaluation: Employment Demand, Current and Future Development Requirements

The managerial and administration sector is one of the most admired positions globally. As per the qualifications, I have ensured that I gain all the relevant skills and competencies that ensure I am in the relevant position and able to deliver the tasks given effectively. The position demands reduced errors in work delivery as the sector has the client and office operation line. In this scenario, therefore, in the effectiveness of work delivery, there is a need for competent personnel.

The technological needs and demands of the sector, especially to the information and communication needs, make the requirements even in the employment department to re-evaluate the specific competencies that can ensure successful service delivery. Moreover, the ICT sector in any department is always in need of improvement to cope with current trends (Jayatilleke and Lai 2018). In this regard, I make all possible to have the skills and ensure that my delivery is not compromised.

There is an excellent demand for twenty-four-hour service delivery and surveillance. This is currently aimed at ensuring increased profit, especially in the private sector of employment. This kind of demand makes the companies to strategize on deliver mechanisms using both the human resource and computerized machines. With this demand, it is therefore fit for any professional to have the requisite to make the services available around the clock.

The management paradigms change frequently. It is also essential to ensure that as a manager, I remain afloat with the needs of the current demand. As a professional, it is also for me to equip myself with the relevant updated schemes on the management paradigm. A labour supply curve depicts and shows that the number of employees willing to and can fully accept to provide and deliver services in a working environment that has no improved and sustained occupational wages has reduced (Jayatilleke and Lai 2018). The demand in the sector shows a reformed population of staff that must be motivated materially for effective service delivery. This demand is highly increasing in pressure and consistency of the push must relooked at and various counter measures are taken.

Similarly, in an occupation at different wages the effectiveness of work delivery is always considered ineffective as the workers seem not to motivated. As a manager in that regard must consider harmonizing the wages to make sure that the moral of the workers. On the same note according to the available labour demand curve records it shows that the number of employers is willing and ready to employ and pay different wages.

In the management sector various positions are currently availed and very competitive to the global world. This includes recruitment position, hiring sector, performance management, learning, development, succession planning, compensation, benefits, human resources, information Systems, human resource data and analytics (Jayatilleke and Lai 2018). All these positions always change and diversify as time changes.

Professionally, there are various roles in professional management this include such as marketing manager, sales manager, financial manager, computer and Information Systems Manager, public Relations Manager, Human Resources Manager, and the General Manager. All the qualifications for these roles are enshrined towards delivering services as manager. But due to the current specific demand in employments sector its prudent for the managers to gain proficient skills in service delivery of all the sectors and embrace general knowledge in management.
