Our Future
Cluster 1 Our Future summary
Theoretical basis
When talking about theoretical basis in this cluster I think it is safe to say that I gained a lot of knowledge in regards of different models we have used throughout the year. I feel that some of the new models we have been tough during the courses have helped me understand the way of working and our end goal better. Some models have helped me go deeper into our findings, those models include the FOETSJE model and more. Other models have helped me put everything in perspective with which we were able to conduct a more focused research. There were some models I have used this year with which I made a mistake, the model (5P’s) was used in the wrong way and not focused on the specific topic we had to research. I could have used a model that would have gotten us to the right findings instead of this one.
Investigative ability
Looking at investigative ability in this cluster I think it is safe to say that I have learned the importance of doing deep research into a topic. Some assignments we had had to be researched step by step, I think before I tried to rush over some of the research that had to be done. This year I learned that it is important to go trough every step before drawing any conclusions about the topic. When doing this you will be able to provide the company with the result they desire to get. I think some of the deliverables show that I know how important it is to do extensive research, since our concept and ideas are created because of it.
Professional expertise
thinking about professional expertise in this cluster I think I can say that I have developed myself in terms of analyzing situation from which a solution has to be created. I feel that I have had a professional attitude towards every assignment we had to create the ultimate result together with my group. I feel like I have developed the way I can connect my own morals and interest within the assignments and the industry. There were some situation in which I did not agree with some people, even though this happened I was still able to handle this in a professional and neat manner in which the outcome will always be a win – win situation.
Professional ethics and social orientation
During the year there have been some assignments in which you had your own outcome to choose. Because I am very interested in learning about ethical and social issues in the world I therefore choose to focus those assignments on those topics. I think it is important to, with festivals, show the importance of having everyone together and equal. For me going forward I will stick with my morals, this will show in future projects and my professional future. I feel it is important to provide positivity to the world and to do this with an industry that provides people with a good experience is the ultimate outcome.
Your Future
Cluster 2 Your Future summary
Theoretical basis
When looking at theoretical basis for this cluster I think it is safe to say that I actually learned a lot about my intrinsic motivation and where I want to go in the future with some models and theories provided by the lecturer. Some theories where more useful in my point of view than others. I feel like the career matrix was useful but only to an extent, this because you will place yourself where you want to be. There is however nothing to under build this choice, and my choice also already changed during the year. Another theory we used a lot is our lumina profile, this has given me a lot of insight into my own motivation and way of working, and it helped me a lot during projects.
Investigative ability
Looking at investigative ability for this cluster I think I can say that for myself I learned a lot in regards of doing research. I feel that I during the year choose a lot of topic that I intrinsically wanted to learn about. An example of this is crowd safety and also our playground session about cultural differences and diversity. I have learned that doing research on topics and turning it into something critical that you can provide knowledge with to other students actually makes me learn way more about a topic. I feel that I can however do more in regards of this topic as I can do some extra research on certain topic outside of school.
Professional expertise
Looking at professional expertise in this cluster I feel that there is a lot to improve. I can improve my networking skills and the actual way that I want to market and communicate in this industry. I feel however that I did a lot to improve myself in terms of working together in a team and not let people walk over me when I do not agree with something. I have learned that every task has another way of communicating within a group, when you’re a leader of a project you have to be a bit more firm in communication compared to when you have a less important role in the organization. For me I also strengthened my sense of working together, I feel that when working together you can create a more optimal result as you can spar with each other’s ideas and improve each other with your knowledge. when having a god atmosphere whilst doing this your result will always be optimal.
Professional ethics and social orientation
Looking at professional ethics and social orientation in this cluster I think I developed myself a lot. Not only in terms of social issues but also sustainability. Before starting this year I had no interest in learning about sustainability, this changed during this year since I noticed how many issues a festival can provide when not thinking about sustainability. I feel it is important that I in the future think about this topic and take it into account when developing a concept. I also found that it is really important for me to stick to my morals when working on something as this will provide me with the ultimate intrinsic motivation. It is not only important for the industry but also for the world to develop in terms of inclusivity and diversity, and if I can do something to help I will always take this chance.
