Learning Outcome 4

6.0: Reflect on the value gained from conducting the project and its usefulness to support sustainable organisational performance

6.1: Reflection for learning and practice:
  • The difference between reflecting on performance and evaluating a project − the former considers the research process, information gathering and data collection, the latter the quality of the research argument and use of evidence.

6.2: The cycle of reflection:
  • To include reflection in action and reflection on action.
  • How to use reflection to inform future behaviour, particularly directed towards sustainable performance.



6.3: Reflective writing:
  • Avoiding generalisation and focusing on personal development and the research journey in a critical and objective way.



  • Google cloud / Drive
  • Snipping tool




6.4: Generalisation:
  • Many studies result in generalised findings. Research which has its basis in a specific field such as Human Resource Management (HRM) and in a specific context should avoid generalised conclusions.

  • Outcomes should be specific and actionable.
