Assignment Organization and Clarifications:

Please note this is a reflective paper. It is NOT a summary or explanation of each core value. It is your own personal inflection on which cores values you are currently utilizing, have experience with, have seen demonstrated, will be using in the future, etc. You do not need to select every core value. Select only the ones that are relevant to your reflection. Please do not summarize the unit topics. Discuss unit topics in direct relation to your reflection of your selected core values.

For example, you can reflect by stating “One core value that I have been using at work is focusing on the future. I have been using this core value to motivate my employees/soldiers and provide information on the many opportunities that lie ahead for them.
