Consultant Reflections and Personal Development

[0.25] credits · Graduate

Debriefing project processes and outcomes with clients and project teams is a critical component for quality improvement and innovation in consulting. This course takes place at the beginning and completion of the consulting project and provides a structure for student reflection based on their project team activities and interactions. Course content focuses on topics related to the reflective process such as effective reflection, gathering feedback, defensiveness, solutions, and integration for future student development and future projects. Students experience their own reflective journey by completing their self-reflection at the end of the project and comparing it with their initial reflection, while also considering how differing perspectives, backgrounds, and experiences shape collaboration and learning within consulting teams.
