Introduction
I admire Steve Jobs, who is a successful leader in the field of computers. As I complete my academic program, I intend to develop the success skills and abilities that will enable me to achieve my dreams on the cutting edge of computers. Mr. Jobs is the perfect role model for me because he was an entrepreneur, marketer ,and inventor. I hope to find out about his early child years, early work, and business life.
My program area and intended career field
I chose the information technology program because I wanted to get certified in a field that has plenty career opportunities available and financially rewarding. I expect to complete my program by spring of 2015. I will have acquire the skills to be successful. A basic portfolio of technical skills should include a solid understanding of IP, subnetwork masks, routing, open systems interconnection layers, switching, routing protocols, gateways and security. Some programming ability can be a big plus.(The Network Trouble Shooters.By: Watson,Sharon J., Computer World, 00104841, 9/16/20002,Vol.36, Issue 38)
Characteristics of an effective leader.
“Good leaders treat people with dignity and respect.” Many of the charateristics seen in good leaders, such as self-awareness, reliability and sensitivity to the strengths and weakness of colleagues, are also features of followers. Taking responsibility and accepting consequences are other key components of leadership.(Rebecca Walberg(2010,January) Elusive lessons of leadership. National Post,pg.FP12) Effective leaders are, in effect, the compass that keeps an enterprise oriented toward a common goal, on that track toward a vision of future success.(David W.(2009,October) Effective leaders drives business success. National Post, pg.FP4)
