Hello,

Kindly, below is prof’s feedback on what I had elaborated. See attached documents, which I am submitting to you for your perusal.

Accordingly, I will only be providing you with feedback and you should correct the preliminary submission now if the submission is incorrect in some is way. Note that you do not resubmit but merely incorporate feedback in where you deem appropriate on the final submission.

I wish for you to note that the objective of Project 1 is for you to see progress made on the LDP and GAP goals between week 1 and week 11. Please also note that when the final versions of the LDP and GAP are submitted for grading, students are required to submit their Preliminary LDP and GAP (so that you may determine your progress in goal achievement as required for the week 11 graded Project 1 submission).

Your Long-Term Career Goal needs a great deal of work and I wish to note that you should review the course announcement that was posted and focus on the goals statements that are made in the announcement as you have quite a bit of work on your LT Career Goal statement. I found your Short-Term Skills Development Needs to be excellent and do not have any suggestions in this area. As your knowledge base grows you may wish to reevaluate your work and think of it as a living document. Clearly, you are on track here! Feel free to adjust as your knowledge base grows in the coming weeks.

Your GAP Table for the four goals was also on-track. I would suggest that you should also rework all appropriate areas and incorporate reading of academic journal articles located on UMUC’s library online databases. They are free and you can obtain a wealth of information on a wide variety of subjects. You will wish to get into the habit of using the databases as you will be required to throughout the MBA program. Otherwise, your GAP Goals were well developed and you are clearly on track here.

On your Skill Gap Analysis Template you scored yourself at a quite realistic level and I have no statements to make in this area.

Please review the work effort in light of the commentary I have provided and update as appropriate for your final submission on Week 11. You have a quite strong start and I am looking forward to your continued growth and development.
