Assignment 2: Discussing A Positive Employee

Today, I observed my supervisor do paperwork. I know paperwork is an essential part of the profession. First, I filed mail of the residents’ business folders. I observed as the social worker set up transportation for residents doctor’s appointment. My supervisor told about a new resident, who had been admitted yesterday. She told me that I could go talk with her. However, it was lunch time for the residents and I was advised not to interrupt her while eating.

Whilst planning the teams work it is essential that the Manager makes use of peoples skills and knowledge to ensure their objectives and goals are achieved. An objective is “a specific result that a person or system aims to achieve within a time frame and with available resources” (WebFinance Inc., 2017) and a goal is “an observable and measurable end result having one or more objectives to be achieved within a more or less fixed timeframe” (WebFinance Inc., 2017). A goal defines the direction and destination, but the road to get there is accomplished by a series of objectives” (WebFinance Inc., 2017). Objectives should be SMART (see appendix 1) and targets should be allocated to team members to complement their existing knowledge and

I graduated high school back in 1994. I was engaged to be married in just two years, and even though I joined the Pennsylvania Air National Guard right after graduation it was only one weekend a month and two weeks out of the year. So I needed a full-time job. A friend of the family knew a guy who was opening a second store, and was going to need a store manager. I took the job and got started. What I didn’t know was the guy I was just hired to work for was a little confused as to what he wanted. I hung onto the job for a little over a year hoping it would turn around but, no dice.

During Round 1 of our 3-year WDQI grant, we were able to match workforce participants in the One Stop Management Information System (OSMIS) with students in Center for Education Performance Information’s (CEPI’s) databases, and then download their Unique Identification Code into the OSMIS system. From a 2-year group of education exiters, we were able to link their interactions within the Workforce Development Agency (WDA) and their wage record outcome data. We generated 24 reports designed to answer 7 Core Questions; 8 of the reports are available to the general public on mischooldata.org (Workforce section), and all 24 reports are being used by our partners in the Labor Market Information group to generate white papers, which will be completed by September 30, 2015. NOTE: The participants that we were able to link must have visited a Michigan Works! service center, which means the output data is biased and not reflective of the general population as a whole.

It also affects our dealers and distributers as well. Other companies may be eyed for replacement of like products by our customers, costing us millions in revenue. At the same time, our customers are smart and believing in a company that ensures our products meet Federal and State guidelines for the safety of their kids may bring in millions more.

Students had previously covered the topic of developing fluency in multiplication by 2-digit numbers. After that topic students moved on to cover number sense, dividing by 1-digit divisors using mental math to prepare them for the following topic of my learning segment. The topic of my learning segment consists of developing fluency, dividing by 1-digit divisors. I designed my lesson as a three-day unit focusing on long division by modeling division with place-value blocks, dividing 2-digit by 1-digit numbers, and dividing 3-digit by 1-digit numbers. Students were introduced to division prior to my learning segment but the struggled to understand and comprehend division because students were only introduced to the division algorithm and were not provided with a mnemonic to help them recall the steps. Students also weren’t introduced to division with manipulatives or drawings. Therefore, I

In the year 2013, I started being my dad’s personal assistant for his own company. This has provided me with leadership skills. It has also helped me solved disputes between the owner and the clients. I listen to what the clients want and I try to help the owner and them come to an agreement about what has to be done. Especially doing everything in a good manner so the client is sacrifice with what they are getting. It is good to help solve the disputes that way the client knows that what they are getting is good quality material. Since he does not speak very fluent english I go with him to meet the clients whenever they ask for a translator. The first couple of times I went with him were very difficult for me because I was a very shy person.

To begin with, part of my job is to write or compose programming code which is systematically on it's own. Provided that, as part of the team conducted the measurement. The project that I can think of as the most broad case where we applied a scientific method throughout the organization was the search for proper and efficient solution to handle incoming support request sent to the IT department. Prior to implementing the ticketing system, IT support request are posted via email through an email group that includes all members of the IT department. This has been the standard procedure for years, it has worked well and preferred by many staff. That said, our organization has hired several employees, redefined departments and increase individual

We really appreciate all the work that has been done by your team in order for the 8.8.1 upgrade to go into production. Enrollment Services has really put in a lot of time and effort to understand the process, create the test plans, and walk through individual accounts in PRVW in order to make sure we will be able to report accurate data to NSLDS. I am sure I will still have some questions until that final file is submitted but I am confident we will be able to provide accurate and on-time information by July 31st. This last week Sam, Monica, Snow, and Liz worked many hours with us and for us to get this accomplished. They are amazing! We understand that you all have many projects and daily operations in motion. Yet, still made adjustments

There are several leaders that I have admired in my career over the years. One in particular that stood out was a Chief Master Sergeant in the Air Force who I served under. He was a very intelligent and vibrant leader who placed importance in military customs and core values. He was one whom I emulated in the military because of his task –motivated leadership style. He focused on the goals of the organization with the emphasis on service before self. The implications of his style of leadership lead me to believe that there was little to no relationships formed with lower ranking airmen. He was always able to get the job done because of the driven culture he represented. I learned a wealth of knowledge and information from this particular leader; I was able to create a balance by embracing his style of leadership and relating it with my style, transformational leadership. I believe it was successful, because of my efforts to focus in on the mission and create a balance in inspiring, influencing, and motivating Airmen across the globe.

Janice was confronted with problems where she had to make choices on how solve them. The first one concerned Mrs. Wemberly, s/p colon resection who was requesting for attention. Instead of sending Nurse Mark to see the patient, she decided to check on her which actually led to a better outcome after her talk with the patient. This particular instance showed that Janice prioritized and valued her patient first over the schedule meeting with the VP. If Janice didn’t

Even more alarming than the behavior of the student employees, is that of the students’ supervisors. The supervisors are part of the group working at the cafeteria. Every member of a

One of my goals during this externship was to officially train a new employee. I finally received this opportunity on Monday February 2. We welcomed a new employee to The Courtyard last week and I was in charge of training him Monday night during the 3-11 shift. He moved from California where he worked at a Courtyard for a few years. Since it had been approximately a year since he left the Courtyard in California I knew that he would be a little rusty at working FOSSE, our POS system at the Courtyard. My manager told me to mainly focus on educating him on the different types of rooms that we have at our property and to send him on errands when guests ask for items such as extra towels so that he could get a feel for our layout.
