Assessment Description
An important part of undertaking postgraduate study, is that you actively reflect on what you’ve been
learning and how you could apply it to assist your own professional development and/or future career.
Reflection One will be conducted in Week 6, and will be based on the Industry Guest Speaker (the link
between theory and practice) and be submitted in-class via Moodle
Reflection Two will be conducted in Week 12 and will give you the opportunity to reflect on a part of the
solution’ in your professional life? ? This reflection will give you the opportunity to explore the first two
tenants of Conscious Capitalism (Higher Purpose and Stakeholder Orientation) and two out of the
seven stages of UTheory (Suspending, Redirecting, Letting Go, Letting Come, Crystalising, Prototyping
and Institutionalising) .
Following the in-class work (and sign off by your Facilitator), you will submit this reflection in Week 13,
