think more critically to dig deeper into the different options and ideas that can suit the problems
skills are also important for solving different problems while working in different business
situations. The better idea basically helps to solve each and every problem for the consumers and
the business which is very important for getting the enhanced leadership qualities to manage the
operations of the company (Alah et al., 2022). Effective communication is one of the most
important skills Mark Zuckerberg has because it is seen that he always tries to manage his
effective communication skills to increase the interactions between people as well as it is also

helpful for him to foster better relationships with the consumers through their service-oriented
business Facebook. The effective communication skills of this entrepreneur basically help him to
understand the different needs of the employees as well as it is also helpful for being an effective
leader in the current competitive world. The path-goal theory will be the best explanation for
showcasing the behavioural traits by focusing on the work climate and its objective to develop
the satisfaction of the employees to increase the motivation for evaluating productivity.
Usages of these skills by Mark Zuckerberg and their usefulness and limitations
Mark Zuckerberg uses critical thinking skills to critically understand the environment of the
workplace to innovate and create new types of ideas. Creative thinking skills are always useful
because it helps to work on different options to get a better chance for introducing a new
innovative idea that can be helpful for getting the competitive edge in the modern market trends.
It also has its limitation because critical thinking skills sometimes come up as a complex thought
process that eventually restricts this entrepreneur to think about the simplest solutions to the
The problem-solving skill is also useful for Mark Zuckerberg because Mark Zuckerberg always
uses it to interact with their employees because it is going to be helpful for him to interact with
his employees. Effective communication skill also helps him to foster a better relationship with
the suppliers and the consumers to get a better chance to attract more consumers to use their
services. For example, if any problem occurs in Facebook that is not resolved by the executive,
then the entrepreneur is going to solve the problem on his own with the relevant solutions. The
problem-solving skills are always useful because it helps to solve real-life problems in the
company but on the other hand, it takes extra time to solve the problem in the problematic
context.

The different aspects are related to effective communication skills. Effective communication
skills basically allow the entrepreneur to increase communication as well as it is also helpful for
him to understand the willingness of the team members towards the company. For example, if
the senior executive department heads try to leave the job, then this entrepreneur always focuses
on his effective communication skill to communicate with them about their problems to solve
Effective communication skills also have their usefulness because the entrepreneur can easily use
the communication methods for building trust. Moreover, it is also helpful for the entrepreneur to
be an effective leader while managing the relationship with various suppliers and employees to
The behavioural traits of Mark Zuckerberg also allow him to motivate his employees. The rates
of his behaviour basically focus on the path-goal theory where he gets the opportunity to work on
the directions to reach the goals. Moreover, he also gets the opportunity to focus on the social
responsibilities to manage the group relationships. The behavioural traits basically allow Mark
Zuckerberg to develop an enhanced relationship with all the entrepreneurs and leaders in the
company. For example, if any type of workplace conflict is arising in Facebook, then Mark
Zuckerberg always tries to communicate their visions and his importance for the growth of the
company that eventually helping him to manage his sensitivity to his people as well as it also
helps him to manage the company's growth (de Araujo et al., 2021). However, these behavioural
skills also have their limitations because it is clarified that the behaviour skill has dominant

Personal Brand Dimensions
Mark Zuckerberg always tries to focus on the personal brand diamond sense because it is very
helpful for him to showcase the recognized and largely uniform perceptions of his experiences
and competencies among the consumers and organizations. The Facebook page of this
entrepreneur has more than 80 million followers which basically helps him to build a brand
which can be trusted by the people. The enriched competencies of Mark Zuckerberg allow him to
create his personal brand where he gets the opportunity for straightening his brand vision with
the help of his own strength and skill sets. The entrepreneur also gets the opportunity to work on
his passions with computers and programs that basically helps him to grow his social footprint to
reflect specials on the social networking platforms which helps him to be a personal brand to
attract new consumers with his face value and brand identity (Isaacs et al., 2022).
I always focus on the learning styles of visual auditory learners because these are the main
learning style that I have adopted for understanding the subject configurations. The attributes
related to the visual learning style basically allow me to work on the visualized context of the
subject-specific courses. It also allows me to understand each and every concept of the subject-
specific areas through the images that are showcased by the teacher (Whittington et al., 2022). I
get catered by the teachers with the help of handouts and presentations because it helps me to
absorb the information within little time and space. The visual learning attributes have their own
strength that always helps me to get the opportunity for remembering 75% of the information
that I have seen or read. As I also get the opportunity to get the details through vivid imagination
on the pictures as well as it is also helpful for me to immediately recall each and every word that
is presented visually. This style also has its limitations because it is seen that I can get easily

destructed with colourful images of the presentation and I can miss the key points of the
subject-related attributes. I do not have a wider grip on my muscle memory and for this
reason, I also face different types of problems to study different subject-specific areas. I get
enhanced opportunities for increasing my personal activities where I can use the flowcharts and
models to get theoretical knowledge of the subject-specific area. For example, if I get to know
about the image-based information in the subject-specific area then I am going to use the visual
images of the presentation slides to recall the information which eventually allows me to enhance
my academic grade. These activities basically allow me to summarise the key points of the
information for evidencing my academic writings on the subject-specific topic [refer to appendix
The attribute and the concepts of the auditory learning process are also known and handled by
me. I always learn better when the subject matter is revolving around the attributes of sound. I
always try to use my effective listening skill to listen to the lecture to read the written notes as
well as it is also helpful for me to focus on the concepts and ideas in an accurate way to verbally
explain things. The teachers always help me to focus on my auditory learning process you going
to focus by providing audio tips and showcasing videos with sounds that are interrelated with the
subject information. The aspects related to the auditory learning process have their own
advantages. The aspects related to the auditory learning process basically allow me to enhance
my critical listening and thinking skills. Moreover, it also helps me to enhance my thinking and
improve my focus and pay better attention to get a comprehensive memory (Lio et al., 2021).
However, it also has its limitations because I face different types of problems in processing

learner. The teachers also face different types of problems for me because it is seen that I
am comfortable with hearing information but the classroom environment can easily get
distracted because there are other students in the area who are not committed to hearing
and understanding information. I also get the opportunity to enhance my personal attributes
with the help of auditory learning activities. For example, I always try to read the homework
directions out loud that is very important for me to record the facts on the key specific areas of
the given work that is very important for managing the practical activities for being auditory

I have to focus on the most comprehensive and critical method to improve my skills in different
learning areas that eventually allow me to be enhanced by personal attributes. In the first session,
I have to observe others for overcoming my fears because fear can prevent me from growing
and progressing and for this reason, fear needed to be overcome for making good decisions as

The second method will revolve around the areas of feedback because it is clarified that the
feedbacks are the best way to improve my skill sets. For example, if I am lacking in
communication skills then the feedback on the communications can allow me to communicate
the right things and the enhanced communication skill is helpful for me to meet my personal
attributes. The feedback on the recent projects also allows me to use the positive comments as
constructive criticism to find better ways to improve (Luo et al., 2021). Feedback also allows me

Discuss which method would be more effective for developing skills and why
According to reading resources, it is clarified that feedbacks are the best way to effectively
develop my personal and professional skill set. Feedbacks basically allow me to focus on the
listening attributes to listen to different areas of concern where I needed to be improved. I also

Conclusion
From the descriptions, it is clarified at personal effectiveness attributes are very important for
managing the entrepreneur's skill sets. I also get the opportunity to understand that as a visual
and auditory learner I need to focus on the different images and audios for gathering the proper
information that is interrelated with my subject topic. The analysis of the personal effects of
Mark Zuckerberg helps me to understand that an entrepreneur should focus on behavioural trades
and enhance critical thinking and problem-solving skills that are needed to be improved to
overcome all the problems that are interrelated with modern businesses. Hence, the methods of
overcoming fear and using feedback are also helpful for me to announce my personal and
professional skills in an accurate way. It helps me to identify the areas of skill gaps that are going
