The types of things that would be more supportive of my ongoing growth and development as a leader and person would be positive interactions with the people around me. When I work with people that I truly enjoy the company of, it doesn’t matter how grueling or uninteresting the work we are doing is. On the flip side, if I am around people that I don’t enjoy being around for whatever reason, I would hate the work I’m doing- even if it’s very easy. Being around a great supporting cast can really make a difference, especially when you have to spend 8+ hours a day with them- even if the work itself isn’t something you really enjoy. I would say this is because it really stimulates and motivates you.
I am committed to the value or importance of: Feeling comfortable with your surroundings at work
What am I doing or not doing that prevents my commitment from being realized? Perhaps not talking enough about my accomplishments at work. While I don’t believe in boasting, I think its important to let others know when you accomplish good things at work or in your personal life.
What would be preventing me from talking more about my accomplishments would be my unwillingness to have the spotlight on myself, as I don’t want to seem like a self-centered person. This would be more pronounced in an environment where I am uncomfortable, but not at all present in an environment where I am comfortable with the people I am surrounded by.
Assumptions that could be wrong from 2+3 would be my perception of others making judgments about me if I talk about my achievements, when this could be completely untrue as I personally don’t do this to others when they talk about their achievements and are proud of

    Many accomplishments in my life make me particularly proud. Having the opportunity to play varsity shortstop in high school, reaching one hundred hit, and being selected into the National Honor Society are three such accomplishments. I am proud of these successes because I was able to set them and accomplish for myself. Not everyone can say that they have achieved such success, but I can, and that makes me…

    At many of my previous jobs I was shown that a leader was someone who constantly told you what do but did not set an example. Thanks to Greg, Nikki, and many others in our management team, I have learned what it means to be a true leader. Their work ethic is an example alone. It has taught me to show pride in my work, always be productive, to help team members when needed, to have integrity, and patience, and so much more. I have had many ups and few downs at Jamba Juice, however regardless of what is going on I always strive to do the best I can do. I personally cannot think of many thing that I have brought to improve the store, but more like what I have learned and applied to my daily work ethic. I believe I have helped our store improve by always having great customer service and treating each guest with respect. I also believe I have helped improve our store by never going against authority, and always following direction. Teaching some or our new team members how to sell tumblers, and guiding to constantly be productive overall being the best they can be, and constantly being and example and motivating is one way I believed I have improved to the…

    Not only for my projects, but moving ahead in life. Believing I can walk through new doors full of amazing opportunities in which I can create new beginnings for myself. Becoming decisive and making the right choices in life. As I have inherited skills from others throughout PFC, I have also delivered. I contributed to PFC by becoming more professional and putting my leadership skills to work. Being there for my fellow coworkers and helping out one another. Also, I have created and even more welcoming and exciting community within PFC not just for myself but others as well. Whether we would be just sitting tabling waiting for students to pick up shirts to working inside the office trying to keep it quiet, we have always had our major load of fun. Interacting with each other not only inside the office and on campus, but off-campus has brought closer to each other knowing we can rely on each other when it comes to anything. Each and every one of us has left a special mark in each other’s lives. When it comes to improving on something, I believe I could have at times put my personal situations aside from my…

    I believe that when I became the captain of my robotics team, I have gained countless important life skills. For example, I believe that I have gained a great understanding of resilience, dedication, responsibility, and teamwork. More specifically, to have resilience means to be able to quickly recover from difficulties and failures, to have dedication it means to be committed to a task or purpose, to have responsibility means to be accountable for your actions, and to have teamwork means to combine the efforts of a group of people. Furthermore, being a leader has also assisted me in my socializing and networking skills. When I was younger, I was a shy person. However, because I have to present various presentations and meet many new people as the team leader, I have broken out of my shell and I know greatly enjoy acquainting myself with new people. Frankly, I have had many challenges and failures that I have had to overcome throughout my years, but with these life skills, I believe that I have been able to accomplish many of the goals I reach…

    Three reasons why I think that I will be a successful leader are that I have: motivation, time management skills, and people skills. The first reason, motivation, is one of the best traits that you could have. Motivation is used when your employees or workers aren’t having a good day or are down in the dumps. You use motivation to brighten up their days, whether it’s something that you would say to them or if it’s something you give them to build their confidence and will to work on what they are working on.…

    Leadership and Self Doubt

    • 647 Words

    I found two articles that offer me insight in what may be affecting my misperception. In my mind I am an “impostor” who finds himself “STUCC.” (The Dangers of Feeling Like a Fake, Kets De Vries, Harvard Business Review, Sept. 2005; The Perils of Outperformance: STUCC, Exline and Lobel, American Psychological Association, 1999) With each successful completion of a goal, though it makes me happy, that feeling is replaced by anxiety- I question how I made it and wonder when I’m going to fail because “there’s no way I deserve [this].” Having achieved success, those with whom I interact praise my accomplishments and make comments about my capabilities. Because I am self-deprecating, these interactions are often uncomfortable. I feel like those individuals are making an upward comparison to me, which makes me feel anxiety. The external perception that I am capable and an achiever comes into direct conflict with my own perception of me being less than capable and “just making it.” This leads me to try to take on more than I can…

    Leadership… I always try my best to obtain as many leadership positions as possible, of course, with the assurance that I can handle them all. I can always be critical and say it's pretty obvious I have leadership qualities just because I'm class president, but as a leader I try not to think of it as just a title. A leader should be one that is more constructive and less critical. A critical person may think there has got to be a better way to do something, but a constructive person knows what that "Better way" might be. A leader can best be described as, responsible, successful, and resourceful. When it comes to showing good leadership I think I can truly live up to it, because of the positions I uphold.…
