Summary module description:

The Personal Development module is an integrated and holistic part of the post-experience MBA programme at Henley Business School. It seeks to support and challenge managers in all aspects of their growth while studying and is a catalyst for reflection on learning from all other modules and aspects of the MBA.


Aims:

Personal Development is:



鈥渢he identification and removal of those restraints that limit the likelihood of sustainable individual, organizational, social and environmental health and well-being鈥



There are four ideas at the heart of the Personal Development activities at Henley:




  1. PD is a holistic activity. It starts with raising self-awareness about personal values, beliefs, capabilities, motivations and approaches to learning and leads to a broad understanding of the role of the manager in society.

  2. Self-awareness requires the space and time to reflect

  3. From reflection on current reality, learners find and move towards aims and goals (at work and in life) by establishing where there are gaps and systematically building a personal action plan

  4. The articulation of thoughts, emotions, goals and achievements across a range of media and the demonstration of critical thinking are necessary outcomes to measure personal development



The module is part of other structured activities that include Careers Support to develop employability and career progression, and learning and pastoral support from Personal Tutors and School administration to maintain good academic progression.听 The module aims to enable each Programme Member to:




  • take control of their direction;

  • have and pursue life and career goals;

  • obtain maximum benefit for self and organisation from the learning opportunity;

  • reflect upon their own learning, performance and achievement and plan for their personal, educational and career development;

  • support the assessment of learning outcomes as stated in the programme and subject module specifications.

Brief description of teaching and learning methods:



Personal Development Review and Planning



The module is designed around a core process of teaching and 鈥榣earning by reflection鈥 to equip Programme Members to prepare a Personal Development Reflection and Plan at the start of Stage 1. This is then updated iteratively towards the end of Stages 1 and 2 of the programme. Each Stage of the programme explores a particular theme. In Stage 1 this is the 鈥減erspective鈥 of th e individual, in Stage 2 it is 鈥渞elationships鈥, for example at the organisational level, and in the final Stage it is 鈥減urpose鈥 and connection to wider environments for PD.



Blended Learning



The module is mostly self-study, with elements of face-to-face and blended learning, combining:




  • on-line resources and exercises supporting a Study Guide

  • a s equence of PD workshops, the mix dependent on programme mode

  • a core text distributed in hard copy to all programme members (currently: A Managers Guide to Self-Development (2013, 6th edition) Pedler, Burgoyne and Boydell)

  • A series of additional online support resources are made available throughout the programme. These resources promote effective behaviours to drive outcomes (e.g. drawing on MBTI, FiroB, NLP, LDQ), as well as core skills for building and working in teams: communication (influencing & persuasion), facilitation (1 to many) and coaching (1:1)



Self-awareness and Team-building: Personal and Team Goals



Self-awareness is a key element in the PD process and assessment. Typically Programme Members will obtain information on their personality, team roles, learning style, values and motivation and be given opportunities to undertake a team-building activity designed to estab lish a charter for their learning team.



It is a significant part of the development experience that individual development goals co-exist with team goals and may give rise to dynamic tension. It is for programme members individually and collectively in their teams, to manage this process to maximise the benefits for all parties, drawing from the team-building activity and charter.



Participative Style:



On-line activities and fac e-to-face workshops are conducted in a participative style to provide opportunities for PMs to practice relevant behaviours, especially relating to the core skills of communication, facilitation and coaching.

Stage 3:听No assignment



Programme members must submit their first assignment near the start of the programme in Stage 1 and then a Personal Development Review and Plan at the end of Stages 1 and 2 of the programme.



PD Reviews should be reflective in style and should comment on the context, e.g. relating to development achieved (including where appropriate in-company processes), the rationale for the selection of development goals and demonstrate an evolving sense of personal development as part of their management practice. PD Plans should focus on development goals, noting in particular the opportunity to demonstrate competence in behavioural learning outcomes. The assessment involves two criteria that connect action to thinking:




  1. Increasing evidence of understanding and skills relating to the generic process of reflection:听 the critical review of experience, analysis and recording of learning, and statement or application of new perspectives.

  2. Increasing evidence of understanding and skills relating to the purpose of reflection:听 the appropriate application of reflection to your Personal Development. Justification of an agenda of short, medium and long term goals, sense-making as a manager and groundwork for development of competences and perspectives needed for Senior Leadership.


Formative assessment methods:

Penalties for late submission:

These are in accordance with the mode of study arrangements laid out in the programme guide.

Assessment requirements for a pass:

It is a 鈥榞ateway鈥 assessment (no marks or grades are awarded) with a 鈥淧roceed鈥 or 鈥淩evise鈥 decision, based on demonstration of sufficient听 competence in line with the criteria expressed above to permit an award or progression to the next Stage. Heavy emphasis is placed on providing clear and insightful tutor feedback.


Reassessment arrangements:

There are no limits to the number of times a Programme Member may re-submit in the few occasions when required to do so. In most cases the focus will be on formative assessment in terms of feedback specifying developments required at the next end of Stage assessment.
