Every business requires some form of investment and enough customers to whom its output can be sold on a consistent basis in order to make a profit.

Class Activity 2: Business Performance
In this class performance, students have get to understand more the Big 5 Personalities- OCEAN. Which is Openness, Conscientiousness, Extroversion, Agreeableness and the last one is Neuroticism.
Self Reflection:
I had learnt the useful power of this big 5 personality and the important of the five personality factors represents a range between 2 extremes. However, the 2 personality that being testes d in this experiment were Agreeableness and Neutoticsm. In the real world, most people lie somewhere in between the two polar ends of each dimension. Furthermore, research has demonstrated that this grouping of characteristics tend to occur together in many people. For example, our group have presented all the individuals who are sociable tend to be talkative.However, these traits do not always occur together. We get to investigate personality, which is complex and varied and each person may display behavior across several of these dimension.

Self Reflection:
Our topic that we chose to this research assignment was "Fast Food and it's Effects on Society". Basically, all I know about fast food is the term given to food that is prepared and served very quickly. I think it's happen when the people all over the world are looking for a quick, easy meal to grab on the go,fast food is the common solution. With the efficient service, low prices and casual atmosphere to attract many people. In my opinion, although fast food make people convenience to get a meal, but it actually effect the healthy life of consumer in this society. For example, I totally agree fast food will lead consumer to diabetes, effect human liver and heard ,contributes to poor performance and obesity.

OVERALL SELF-REFLECTIVE ESSAY
The important lesson that I had learn from this entire study of business class is Problem Solving and Decision Making are important skills for life. I believe that problem solving often involves decision-making, and it is very useful and important for management and leadership. However, I think there are processes and technique to improve decision making and the quality of decision. I strongly believe decision making is more natural to certain personality, so I learn to be more alert and focus on every lecture class and it may help me to improve the quality of decision.
In the other hand, I have learnt many thing about how to start an own business and how to operate a business by gain the knowledge of Business ethic, Leading people, Social Responsible and etc. Based on the marketing class, I learnt the most important key about to manage a business which is the 5's P of marketing course which covers people, place, price, product and promotion. Each of this key have been explain in detail by our lecture that enable me to understand and implement the marketing strategies into my future business.
