According to Cowan (2014) reflective writing is a writing that a person practice in order to describe an event that he/she has attended or experienced over a time. In this writing the person writes its own reflection or own thought that it feels he/she has learn through the event. There are various questions that the writer of reflective event ask it its oneself about the event it has experienced such as “What did he/she learn?”, “Why was the event important?:” and so on. This helps them to know the actual understanding of the attendant event. Reflective writing is written after attending the event and not by listening to the experience of others.
The typology here describes a cultural event. Cultural events refer to events that takes place for to bring various culture together under one roof and interact with each other. Such events also help people to know about others cultural and tradition (Kwon et al. 2015). It is done to celebrate the practice and customer of two or more cultures.
This topic helped me to learn that cultural events are important and the way it helps others to get linked with the cultures of others. This will not only help me to learn about others tradition, it will also help me to love their customs and belief.
I got to learn about cultural events by reading various articles and books that well describes about different types of event management and the importance it has on the society. These articles also described cultural events very appropriately and nicely.
The event that I attended had relation with the concept of cultural event that I studied because it was also a multicultural event that required students from various community to come and present the foods of their culture. It also helped me learn similar things that I identified in the benefits of cultural events to the society.
Team work and team development is the way by which few people form a group in a place to take part in certain activity or task. A team does not occur by themselves, as it is created by the members of the activity. A team is of great importance to the society as it helps to develop personalities and also form collaboration between different personalities. Team is a formation of performance that evolves from various members over time (Galegher et al. 2014).
Team work and team development topic taught me the importance of team work and collaboration in any activity. It taught me that working in a team offers a lot of benefits that one cannot attain while working alone. I learnt that team is the way to success that one can get by adding the views and ideas of every member. It is the best way to finish the task before time and accurately.
I read about team work and its usage from various event management group in which it explained the importance of team work and its effectiveness with the help of various examples.
Team work applied to the event because it was a cultural event in which a lot of people took part and everyone had their own role to play in the event. This helped the team to successfully complete the event and earn potential profit.
Risk management is managing a situation that every work or every activity involves in the event. It is the negative outcome of every activity that one expect if the desired result is not achieved. Risk is not expected solely in an event. It can take place at each and every thing that happens in reality. However, usually risk is directly linked with two types if risk such as safety risk and financial risk (McNeil et al. 2015). Thus, management of such risk and stopping them in time is called risk management.
Risk management helped me to learn that it is not necessary to be afraid of the risk or issues involved in any task without taking part in it. It has also helped us to learn various ways in which a person can tackle risk and get rid of it as soon as possible. Running away from taking ris is not the beneficial decision as almost all types of work involves risk.
I have learned about risk management strategies and activities from articles and reports published from time to time. Reading those article and by explaining the concept to others helped me a gain a lot of essential knowledge from it.
Risk management concept is related to the event that I took part in because there was a lot of risk connected to it such as the chance of profit, the success of the event and others. However, we learnt risk management by planning and analyzing every task before implementing it. This proved to be the reason of our success.
Different topic that I learnt during this event and from the reading various article about different types of concepts such as risk management, team work and typology of cultural event. These topic allowed me to learn that all these activities are important in every event that we participate in. I would prefer to use team work in every activity I participate. This is because I learned that through effective team work a person can easily cope up with everything. Teamwork helps in coping up with the risk involved in a activity and also help in spreading the true knowledge and usefulness of cultural event. The key points that I learnt from the activity and that I can share with others outside the event is that risk is not a situation to be avoided.
It is beneficial to take part in the risk and learn to fight it back. Moreover, I also learn to time management skills during this task because it is the most crucial factor in any activity. Managing the time not only help in finishing the work in time, it also helps in completing it effectively (Smeets et al. 2014). I would love to arrange one more event with few member that wants to learn these skills and help them carry out the work efficiently. The event can be anything such as a team project or a recreational event that people would love to take part in. teaching time management top other is most essential because it will help in dealing with other activities as well such ad financial tasks, teamwork and manage work pressure.
Thus according to me time management is the most useful thing to learn and make people aware of it. The information that I would like to use in future to develop my career is time management only. This is because time management will also help me manage tasks during exam and help me in exceling every task we do. This will help me reach heights in my career by helping me completing all my lessons in time with the time management skills. Thus, these are the concepts I learnt during these activities both from the event and readings from articles.
