This week’s key learning areas have been eye opening and worthwhile. Our game simulation has taught me how to manage the human resources (HR), capacity planning, receiving, production, and shipping departments.

These key areas will be discussed throughout the journal to express my understanding of the experience.

Staff in multi-agency teams face issues concerning the balance between specialist and generalist skills and status, with specialist agencies being required to redefine their roles.
