ISC 100 Reflection Worksheet Name:

This Reflection worksheet is based on the book Outliers: The Story of Success. The goal of this assignment is for you to reflect on ideas and concepts discussed by Gladwell and how they might relate to your own personal experience either at Seneca, or at home, work, or play. It is critical that your answers reflect on the actions you might take based on your reading of the text. Please answer in complete sentences.

1. In your own words explain “Accumulative Advantage” (page 30). Reinforce this concept with an example from Outliers.

2. As you continue your Seneca experience, list and briefly explain three ways you could build an “accumulative advantage”. These success strategies can come from Seneca, community or family supports.

3. What is your program? Do you believe success is due more to inborn talent or deliberate practice or both – page 38? Prove your point with an example of a situation you think you will experience on the job.

4. Understanding Power Distance index –page 204 (PDI) is very important for building better groups and understanding our place in those groups. Briefly explain what is meant by PDI?

5. When is a High PDI good and when is Low PDI an advantage? Give two examples for each.
