i. Identify five words that typify your core values

ii. Beside each value describe as honestly as possible how that value is demonstrated by you in your workplace.

iii. A client or colleague may not share your values. For each of your values, provide an example of how this could lead to conflict, obstruction or a reduction in your effectiveness.

2. Reflect on your self-evaluation and develop three statements that typify your core beliefs? Beside each statement describe as honestly as possible how you think that belief affects your approach to work and overall effectiveness.

3. Reflect on your self-evaluation and identify three behaviours in your practice that you believe typify how you work. For each behavior provide two examples that demonstrate your behaviour in action.

7. You have now completed a series of frank exchanges with colleagues and have used a process and method for seeking evaluative feedback in a two-way exchange. On reflection, discuss how effective you believe the experience was in developing your professional performance. (Up to 60 words)

For instance, a supplier, someone from another organisation, a colleague from another organisation that you frequently contact, etc. Ask both parties to complete the second column on the Self-Assessment Form. Reflect on the ratings they gave you and complete the following item:

i. Were the ratings you received different to those received from your colleagues? Why do you think they differed/stayed the same? Discuss (Up to 80 words)

Part B

Every individual learns differently and theories have developed which assist us in identifying our own learning style and the style of others – such as clients and colleagues. Based on this knowledge we are better equipped to understand ourselves and others. Both the VAK Learning Styles Test and Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences Test (which are provided), were freely located on the internet. You may find this website useful for researching both theories.
