· What are you good at?- am very good at using good personal judgement and decision implementation. I can take a situation and make a decision for an effective alternative route.
· What do you need to improve? I need to work on not second guessing my self. This causes me to have uncertainty.
· What do you enjoy doing? I enjoy making a difference in a positive way. I like feeling involved in important decisions.
· What are some of the things that you find unpleasant? I don't like dealing with conflict. It is hard for me to make decisions that can negatively impact others.
· Give examples that support your ideas for each statement. when I worked with United healthcare's training department I discovered much about what I was good at and what I was not good at. I was tasked to make group decisions on how to improved the training material and process. I was also faced with walking trainees in not so pleasant processes such as QA.
· Identify career opportunities and threat by researching (cite them) job prospects in the industry you’re interested in. The biggest threat I found in my research would be technology.
What are you good at? Within the workplace I am good at staying on task and focused. I am good at following directions given and helping out others that are confused or overwhelmed. I have always been good at following directions which has helped me to learn so many new things about cooking in the kitchen.
What do you need to improve? I can improve on multitasking, working quickly and efficiently, and striving to move up in the workplace. I talk quite a lot and I find it hard to talk to the servers and work at the same time so i need to find the happy medium.
What do you enjoy doing? I enjoy helping others, completing tasks from start to finish, and bettering the environment around me any way possible. Every time I come into work I create a to do list and it is very satisfying being able to cross stuff off of the list.
What are some of the things that you find unpleasant? I don't like drama, a dirty workplace, liars within the workplace, and cheaters. The kitchen that I work in can get very dirty sometimes and a dirty workplace leads to messy products.
There are career opportunities as a cake decorator or assistant bakery manager at a company called Nothing Bundt Cakes. This business has been open for a while and they do wedding and party cakes. This could possibly be competition for the bakery I am looking at opening. There are also positions available at Sam's club, Walmart, and Panera. Nothing Bundt Cakes would be the most competition for the bakery.
