The business dictionary defines casual research as “The investigation into an issue or topic that looks at the effect of one thing or variable on another.

Discuss how reflection can develop professional practice through critically analysing two different models/theories of reflection in this module. The definition of reflection has been defined differently by various authors. Cottrell (2010) suggests that reflection is a type of thinking that is linked to gaining a better understanding of something and that it is also an important part of the learning experience and where we can make sense of the experience. This can be related to Boyd and Fales (1983) who suggest that reflection is a process which can be used to examine and explore an area of concern and which could potentially end in a changed perspective. These views can be compared to Boud et al.

This network will be an awesome support in dealing with difficult situations.
Problems, whether they are coworker disputes or handling a large spurt of production delays or downsizing your workforce, all require a degree of listening first to what employees need to understand how to effectively deal with and solve the underlying problem. Traditionally, leaders have been valued for their communication skills and decision-making abilities. Servant-leaders must reinforce these important skills by making a deep commitment to actively listening to others.
Decision-Making Models in the Workplace Decision making is a major part of the critical thinking process. Although every part of the critical thinking process is much needed for accuracy, the only part that truly affects everyone involved in a problem is the act of making the decision. When making a decision within a company, many different aspects and factors are involved depending on the organization. Some companies firmly rely on one type of decision model while other companies use various different models to solve several kinds of problems that affect distinctive groups of people. The members of Team B explain the Five Step Model, the Business Mapping Model, a combination of the two and how they can be used independently and jointly.
That would be bad communication. If there is a problem I want my employees to know about it. I want them to know so they can come up with solutions to help fix it. I want my company to achieve all of our goals. I want my employees to work at their best levels.
