Personal Mission Statement • I will aim to pursue life with an enthusiasm for happiness each day. I will strive to share my strengths with others to accomplish success and help pull the best out of others. I will live a healthy lifestyle. I will stay true to myself and the values my parents have instilled in me. I will be honest and respectful to build strong and lasting relationships with many people in my life. I will make the best of each opportunity that comes my way. I will remember each day is a blessing.
Leadership Style Personal Strengths Areas for Improvement • Goal oriented and ambitions. I have an excitement for my future that I let drive me. • Independent • Confident and not afraid to embrace new opportunities. • I am very organized and can manage my time well. • Ability to motivate others to complete tasks effectively. • Relationship oriented. I value other people and their opinions. • Strong sense of self awareness. • Perfectionist. I strive to do the best job I can but sometimes I can expect too much from myself and others. • I have a hard time saying no and try to please everyone. I often stretch myself too thin. • I can be too demanding sometimes and become very focused on the end goal that I neglect others feelings and opinions in the process. • Emotions get the best of me and I can irrationally deal with situations. • Impatience
My Differential Advantages • I believe I am distinct from other leaders because of my determination, optimism, and character. I try to do the best job I can while supporting others. I try to make sure everyone in a group feels comfortable and open to contributing. Respecting others and valuing their opinions is something that is crucial to success. I try to be as optimistic about situations as possible, while at the same time very honest and real. I choose not to delay or sugar coat situations in attempt to be efficient. I have a strong character and I value respect, honestly, and loyalty very highly. I believe to be an effective leader you must be able to bring out the best in others and I am constantly trying to do just that.
My Five Year Plan I hope to have a better idea of what career path within business I’d like to pursue Accept a summer internship Contribute and learn from my upcoming internship Be settled into my new job and home I hope to be married and preparing to start a family Accept a job offer Graduate on time!! Complete a rotation in my field to gain experience and be in a higher position than when I first started the job Have potential job offers for after graduation Get an on campus job that will be rewarding and beneficial Become more active on campus with groups that are tailored to my major The next five years of my life are going to bring many changes and opportunities to grow and develop. While I am not sure what career path I will choose to go down, I plan to pick one that inspires me to work hard and grow. I want to travel overseas at some point. The future can be scary, but I am excited and ready for the endless opportunities ahead.
The Mentoring Process • I was just paired with my mentor this quarter. We have just begun to develop our relationship and it is already valuable. Select has opened my eyes to a different way of looking at mentorship. I used to think a mentor was something very formal. I know realize that mentoring is a constant relationship of give and take. While Select has set up a formal mentor for me in the program, I constantly feel mentored by many others in the group. Being surrounded by and part of a group of people who are so smart, driven, and passionate, challenges me to push myself. • From talking about mentorship in Select it has made me realize that I already have mentors that I never realized. From this realization, I now am more aware of the value that relationship has and can nurture it to stay close with them. • I also have had a new outlook on being a mentor myself. Being someone that others respect and value is gratifying. And I look for opportunities to be an open ear for friends, family, and other peers.
