Student activities can have a significant impact on improving organisational and management skills in students. Involvement in various forms of student activities, such as participation in study clubs, student organisations, student government or organising events, provides opportunities to develop and practically apply these skills. Here are some ways in which student activities can influence the improvement of organisational and management skills:
1 Planning: Organising events, projects or initiatives requires planning skills. Students need to develop goals, set deadlines, plan a budget, identify tasks and spread them out over time. The planning process requires taking into account various factors and ensuring that all elements of the activities are in sync.
2 Organisation: student activities require organisational skills. Students need to organise teams, coordinate activities, ensure access to resources, make decisions on the distribution of responsibilities and establish a hierarchy of accountability. Effective management of resources and people is key to achieving student activity goals.
3 Communication: student activities require effective communication both inside and outside teams. Students must be able to express their thoughts and ideas, listen to others, delegate tasks, resolve conflicts and build relationships. The ability to communicate clearly, constructively and effectively is crucial to effective performance.
4 Leadership: student activities give students the opportunity to develop leadership skills. They need to make decisions, motivate the team, inspire others and take responsibility for the results of actions. Leadership requires the ability to delegate tasks, solve problems, make decisions, build trust and manage a team effectively.
5 Time management: Student activities often require simultaneous involvement in various projects, academic responsibilities and personal life. Students need to improve their time management skills, planning and prioritising tasks, maintaining schedules and deadlines. Effective time management makes efficient use of available
resources and avoid stress.
6 Problem solving: student activities often bring challenges and problems that require creative and logical thinking to find solutions. Students need to be able to analyse problems, identify causes, generate alternative solutions and make decisions. The ability to solve problems is extremely valuable both in the context of student activities and in professional life.
Student activities provide students with practical opportunities to hone organisational and management skills that are valuable for their personal development and future careers.
