Strong Start Feedback Overall On a scale of 1 to 5 (1 being boring to 5 being highly enjoyable), how would you rank Strong Start overall? __4.6__ a. If you did not rank it a 5, what suggestions would you give to improve it to a 5? • Strong Start was a packed day with many presentations and discussions, which was awesome! The only way to improve Strong Start in my opinion would be to split it into two days so everything from the presentations can be covered but also allow for more open discussion time with the presenters. I also feel like I only had the chance to know/talk with a handful of the other new hires that attended. Having more time to talk and network with everyone would have been great. (3) • More interaction with presenters: I …show more content…
In other words, what things did they do as a P1 or YP that contributed to the successful position they are in now. Who were their mentors, how did they find them, do they change, did they change disciplines? I was also really hoping we would talk about the extra effort concept and how that affects our UT. b. What did you think was the most beneficial part of the session? • The panel discussion was one of the most beneficial parts of the session because it was a more casual conversation that was specifically about starting out at Kimley-Horn and balancing personal responsibilities and responsibilities at work. This was helpful to me because it can be overwhelming hearing and learning about the “big picture” – this panel discussion allowed me to realize that it’s more important to build a strong foundation and take it one step at a time. (5) • Networking and the opportunities to talk with the regional team, making connections, and growing your work community is most enjoyable, but I also benefitted professionally from understanding my role and goals for growing my career in my current role. Seeing both the “in the future” role, but also how to be successful with “now”. …show more content…
• It was interesting to hear about the tension between core values, and I really appreciated hearing what considerations go into opening a new office. b. Career Development with Dave Leistiko • Talking about producing a quality product will be very important towards moving my career forward. (5) • Dave Leistiko’s set a very open for discussion presentation. It seemed more like a Q&A session with him as he opened up about his career development path, which was very informative. It is great to hear from someone as successful as Dave to talk about his time as a new hire and how he got to where he is now. (3) • Never go to your supervisor with a question without evidence that you’ve looked for answer first. • We are first and foremost, responsible for our success. • I enjoyed listening to Dave talk about suggestions he had about growing our own careers and taking full responsibility for them. • The importance of communication and how it will help us to work with our peers more comfortably and successfully. • Honestly, this presentation had the least amount of impact on me. It seemed scattered and unorganized. I honestly didn’t get much at all from this. I do think it has great potential with some
Throughout the journey of my life, I have had various personal and professional experiences. All of the opportunities that I have held up to this day have taught me something about learning to be a better listener, communicating with my colleagues, and understanding
I really enjoyed speaking with Chief Woodall on the topic of being a great writer. This has allowed me to get on a more personal level with a man that highly respect and have worked with for most of my adult life. And It has also opened my eyes even more to how important writing a great report can
Recommendation –It got 4.8 stars with 91% of customers giving their love, appreciation and recommendation in disguise of 5 stars.
Overall, I thought that this conference was well presented to us and it had very interesting stuff that I didn’t even know before. I also thought that our speaker was very passionate about the subject which was a good thing and a bad thing at times during
As the commentaries have said what improvements of the seminar, I think they missed a few points that I would like to add first would be multiple people started talking along with their academic transitions and were more comfortable along the way better giving their points on the topics. Also the fact that they brought hand gestures and better eye contact really help comply what they were trying to say.Surprisingly I never really saw or heard any lacking conversations between the discussants. As a coach during the seminar I would say everyone went above and beyond and everyone did a fruitful
Wade and him showing me a little bit of what he does daily gave me a greater appreciation for what maintenance workers do. It also showed me what a manager must deal with daily. Although his shop that he oversees only has 18 people working there it is still a lot of work to be able to manage it and do the daily maintenance work that he has to do. This experience also should me what I can possibly expect when I become a manager of a company and run my own business one
The presentation went fine. Everyone in the group show up on time. I was nervous and I could not communicate my thoughts clearly. The other people in the group did a good job presenting. The crowd could have ask questions instead of waiting for class to be over. I also wish that the SXU database could have have better sources to
The interview reinforced many of the things have learned throughout my career and education at CMU.
Carl Joyner truly inspired me with his talk and I am grateful that he gave such a good presentation for I learned many things. He inspired me to study myself and know what I am capable of before diving into some new endeavor. This is a very smart and safe way to operate because you know the flaws and perks contained in yourself. I think that was his best point and my biggest take-away. I look forward to the next time I can learn from someone as intelligent, experienced and gutsy as Mr.
I think the presentation “Scholarship as Feminist Engagement” was super interesting and I wish each presentation could have been each an hour because I would have liked to know more about the topics. It is amazing how you can take academic subjects and study the same type of subject like feminism in each of them. I think one of the things that stuck out to me was Dr. Nodulam’s presentation was when she was discussing sex positive. I believe that sex should not be something that is completely public, I think that is between the couple but I do believe that there should be some type of public awareness that sex is a thing and no one should be embarrassed talking about it. I think it was interesting when Dr. Nodulman was discussing how the store
Overall, we will give our self a score of 9 because all members of our team had a strong and professional tone throughout our presentation without the use of fillers and incorporating subtle transition points. Furthermore, we had a credible, clear, and varied content base backed up by evidence and visual support. However, there are many areas that we all need to work on including finishing the respective phrase before answering a question and coordinating our stance and posture.
I hope this presentation helps you keep looking on the bright side of your career life.
I believe that we could have spruced it up a bit more. After our interview we looked throughout the school to see all of the resources we had just discussed but we never took any pictures to put in our slideshow. I think if we were to have added more photos in our slideshow the class could have gotten a stronger feel of how the Principal implements his visions in the everyday classroom. For example, the hallways are littered with various projects made by the students and inspirational messages and artwork are spread throughout the whole school. Maybe a few visuals would have helped boost our presentation. Another aspect of our presentation that I believed could have used more time would have been our presentation rehearsal. Since High School I have always been nervous about presenting my work in front of a class for a grade and tend to talk in “slang” as my teacher once told me. An extra ten minutes here and there most likely would have helped me with what I wanted to focus on instead of me being unsure of how clearly I communicated my
~ I would attribute my professional successes this year to management coaching and/or mentorship from Adam Alonso. He has shown great discernment with inviting me to the table where ideas for new programing are explored and conversations on how to expand and improve OST programs are discussed. He has supported the expansion of my leadership capacity in new areas and challenged me to go even further beyond my most elaborate
Overall for our presentation our audience gave us a Very good which we are greatly proud of and appreciate. We are glad that our audience didn’t give us an excellent because we certainly were low in presentation skills when compared to others.
