Throughout the course of my life I put great emphasis on self-development and broadening of my personal skills via additional reading and participation and organisation of various events. Consequently, I am opened for new ideas and creative solutions, as I believe there is no place for inertia in working or study environment. Coupled with work diligent approach my problem-solving attitude can be described as “can-do attitude” I tend to seek opportunities in obstacles and learn from mistakes. In resolving an issue I tend to rely on my vision and experience, which were acquired through numerous discussion within academic circles and journeys around the world. Possess natural ability to articulate ideas persuasively and work in a team.

Strength

VS...

Most of my weakness are resulting directly from the lack of real-life work experience and reflect negative side of my strength. As a viable example of it can be my minimalistic attitude towards completion of any task it flows out of rather positive traits: diligence and “can do approach” at times spilling over into extremes due to certain practical knowledge. Additionally, it worth mentioning that my vision and overall belief in what my team and me do, can lead to oversights. However, during the course of my studies I learnt how to find balance between my strength and weaknesses through simple tools such as efficient time management, teamwork, critical thinking and self-esteem.

Weaknesses

Strongly believe that I incur huge potential for growth in various aspects from interpersonal skills to conventional academic skills it is all possible due to the diverse personality. To mention a few areas I would like to develop further, they are practical aspects of management and leadership, emotional intelligence, various analytical skill, in other words to deepen my knowledge in subjects that compromised my major field of studies in both universities.

Opportunities

VS...

In my opinion, the biggest threat that I my face in the future is to fail to find a balance between my strengths and weaknesses. In its turn the failure may lead to inability to realise all the potential of my personality on the scale planned (see Personal Development Plan attached). As realist I believe in best, apply sufficient effort and keep in mind that there is always a room for a chance to change my personal development in either negative or positive way.
