Immunity Map
The immunity map was beneficial to me because it made me think what are my flaws and everyone is not perfect. I am a strong, confident person when I meet someone new I like to make everyone comfortable around me. This immunity map we did in class made me realize the changes I can make in my life. I always thought i had all the leadership qualities. If I think about my strong leadership skills I think I am lacking is generosity section. I started thinking why I am not generose enough. I am kind to everyone I meet but if I think about it my past has something to do with it. Throughout my life people have broken my trust, they have misused my kind side. They way people had treated me I have developed a negative side of not trusting people at first. I started learning from my expressie and I don't let people push me around anymore. I know it can be a good thing, but sometimes it can harm me as well. The generosity, leadership skill is helpful in life because people come with different backgrounds and they all have a story to tell. I don't have a strong, soft side to help them. The way people treated me, it changed how I look at people and it is not going to be an easy fix. …show more content…
We all hear there is no I in team, we all have different talents and personality that are makes us unique. I believe our flaws are making us stronger. I use my weakness and turn them into my streatengh. I see it as a challenge to do better the skill, generosity is a way to forget how people treated me. I need to improve and trust people and take my time to get to know them. In the future to help achieve my goal I can spend more time with my team. I will try not to come to a judgment before I have thought about it twice. These steps will help me make a better leader and put my past away and move on. I learned one thing from the immunity map is don't let the past reflect you and your

    One of my huge weaknesses is low self-esteem and confidence (Bethel University, 2014). Having this as a poor skill in life makes a lot of the other skills hard to conquer. I think if I had a higher confidence level then maybe I wouldn’t struggle so much with public speaking, management of people and seeking support from others. I don’t give myself enough credit and I am hard on myself. Another weakness that I struggle with is the ability to focus on one thing at a time. I have struggled with this quality as far back as I can remember. My mind is always racing and trying to complete more than more thing at a time.…

    Some of the characteristics I need to improve on include being overly ambitious, procrastination, being too demanding of teammates, being unable to articulate my vision to others and lack of confidence. These weaknesses are important because they take part in defining who I am and how I am viewed. For example, I do no want to be the team member that is difficult to work with, that is not how I want the business community to view me. These weaknesses hinder my ability to achieve my vision due to the fact that they all impact my character negatively. I will not be given the opportunity to take part in extracurricular group projects (which are essential in developing my fundamental leadership qualities) if I am lacking confidence or lacking the ability to articulate my vision. Procrastination and being overly ambitious will also hinder my vision of gaining a positive…

    Prohibition In The 1920s

    The alcohol prohibition in 1920 was a government effort to stop the manufacturing, distribution, and consumption of alcohol. To say the least, the prohibition only made matters worse causing the consumption of alcohol to increase significantly. The addictive properties of alcohol forced citizens into find alternate and dangerous routes to getting their fix. After the defeat of prohibition, one would believe the government would learn from their mistakes. However, the 1950’s proved differently when the president of the United States, Richard Nixon, declared the unprecedented campaign, the war on drugs.…

    I try to look for the positives in situations. And remember, as the saying goes, that I need "to accept the things I cannot change, and the courage to change the things I can". I simply need the wisdom to know the difference between the two. I try hard to focus on only the things I can directly influence. Work at making a positive difference on those things. In Goleman, Daniel "Leading Resonant Teams" interview he mentioned that “The emotional system of the brain -- unlike any other biological system in the body -- is designed to be regulated not just internally but externally, in our relationships with other people. The circulatory system is a closed loop. But emotions are an open loop system. In other words, our brain is designed so that other people can help us manage our emotions better.” Therefore, as a leader I must establish a set of ground rules for the way we work together, both by example in my own behavior and by commenting on the behavior of others and helping people do better. In other words, as a leader I need to help the team become more self-aware. Self-awareness is a prerequisite for the team’s ability to manage its own emotions, and deal with issues rather than burying them.…

    After a couple weeks dwelling on the sidelines I came into conversation with a few teammates which I never would have if it was not for my injury. Repeated conversations with these players every day put growth into my personality and attitude towards the team as a whole. By only talking to these teammates they made it clear what it meant to be a true team player. My eyes were opened which allowed me to see how I was acting around my team before my injury occurred. Noticing the selfish intentions i had previous to my injury I wanted to change, but I had to do it through my actions. Since I refused to accept constructive criticism before my injury, I decided I should give some to my teammates while injured. One particular instance is what changed me. During one of our games the player who was filling in for me got upset over turning the ball over to the other team. I told him to run lower and secure the ball high and tight against his chest with both hands on the ball. As the game went on I continued to share advice with my teammate making him a better player as the game progressed. This player got to a score a touchdown and afterwards he came over to me and thanked me for all the help I had given him throughout the course of the game. This warmed me and made me realize what it meant to help others besides…

    The intention of the following individual action plan is to recognize my leadership strengths and identify areas where I am able to further develop and strengthen my leadership qualities. The challenge within the action plan is to be cognizant of my strengths and weaknesses within the context of my professional and personal life allowing for me to constructively work towards strengthening my weaknesses. The deeper subset to the challenge will require that truth and sincerity of my experiences both professionally and personally be disclosed. The sense of urgency is present and current, I have personally faced my difficult experiences over the past three years and the strengths that brought me through have at times been undermined by the lack of development of my weakness. The mere recognition of a weakness does not resolve or strengthen the characteristic. Metaphorically speaking you could compare this recognition of a weakness to “knowing you need to change the oil on your car, it does not cause any immediate harm and the performance may still be intact, but time will eventually cause failure.” The time has come and is upon me, I am prepared to recognize and understand the very immediate need to adjust and work towards development professionally and personally. The challenge of truthful evaluation of my leadership strengths and development of weakness will bring a balance to my personal leadership and social interactions, which will further advance my professional and personal life, allowing me to return to the value that has driven my success: service to self above others (Rotary International).…

    Growing up I had very poor people skills, I was always brash and overly aggressive, though my intent was never to be so. I refused to change, this is when the “don’t change yourself” phenomenon was going on, I stubbornly insisted that I was perfect the way I was and it was everyone else that was in the wrong for not liking me. I became very unhappy, angry at the way my peers avoided me, yet I refused to change. It wasn’t till one of my teachers, a woman whom I looked up to, told me that the other students were distressed about my behavior. Very gently she explained that my bold behavior simply kept people at a distance. Change if you want to, she told me, to do that I learned to control my anger, and made a real effort to be kind to others. I kept at it, being kind and forgiving, soon people just flowed towards…

    I would observe my teammates workout but rarely was vocal and offered encouragement. I wasn't myself and this had a negative impact on me and teammates. Coach Friske called me out on my behavior and told me I needed to be a leader whether I was injured or not. His pep talk really had an impact on me. I became much more vocal while observing drills. I would high five them and root them on just like I would do if I was healthy. My new found attitude carried into my rehabilitation. I began working through my shoulder therapy with a smile on my face and a positive attitude and often time my teammate would come into the training room and encourage me. My shift in mentality have an amazing impact on my life and the recovery process and transformed a situation from a negative one to positive experience for all of…

    Personal Statement “Hello”, this word is heard everywhere, yet for me it was difficult to say because I was afraid of speaking to others; I feared that they would criticize or mock what I said. When I started high school, I didn’t even know how to verbally connect with peers. However, from a young age my parents instilled in me a desire to constantly seek opportunities to improve. Therefore, realizing that I could not excel in a career if I did not overcome my fear of speaking and learn to communicate better, I decided to face my fears and become a great communicator. I figured that by joining the Boy Scouts I could face my fear of speaking head on, while also learning to bond with others and improve my social skills.…

    Personal Ethics Statement

    My strength is being fair and responsible. I try to always give everyone a chance as long as they are doing what they are suppose to. I am very loyal and will always do what I say I am going to do. I believe that if we all acted in a responsible manner and follow the guidelines there would be social balance and everyone would have the chance for success. However with the belief that everybody has to do things my way and follow the rules, I can be a bit judgmental even though I am trying to help. While just simply having best of intentions I can create more problems for others because I want them to follow my method of doing things, which is my blind spot.…

    One thing that I am big on is integrity. This assessment gave me positive reinforcement about my integrity. When I commit to something I try my hardest to keep that commitment. I don’t like when some tells me that they are going to do something and don’t do it. I try to always keep my word. I try to be as open and honest as I can be without giving anyone a reason to doubt anything I say. I realized that my relationships with people at home, school, and work do not suffer because of my expressions of anger and impatience. I try not to let things that I cannot control get me angry. This is not to get confused with never getting angry because I don’t believe that there is one person that does not get angry. This assessment helped me discover my actions as a team member. I believe that I am a fair team member and I want everyone to feel comfortable with one another. I don’t like conflict so I love when everyone can get along. I try not to hold grudges against others I believe strongly in forgiveness…
