Professional Goals and Objectives

Within the parameters of the field of Children and Family affairs, I have professional goals and objectives that relate to improving my communication skills, my leadership attributes, learn of new technology, as well as gain experiences while working in teams. Through enhancing my communication skills, it will be easier to offer assistance to APS units while ensuring that I am able to conduct case reviews for the cases in point which will play a big part in monitoring the state standards as to whether they are complied with or not (Garthwait, 2017). As an extemporary intern, I can excel at receiving information from individuals and families while also providing correct responses that are clear verbally and in writing. My main objective is to be ambiguous and easy to understand.

Leadership is another professional goal that I have set so as to attain the qualities that are important in a career setting. For example, at the office I work at, my seniors seem to appreciate motivation, the appreciating initiative, as well as the attitude that compels people to take charge. I believe there are increased opportunities when one is considered to have leadership qualities. Some of the important qualities that I consider important for a leader to have included the ability to plan for events and recruiting volunteers to help.

In a professional setting, I also prioritize on gaining teamwork experiences and learning new technology. The internship has helped me to realize the importance of preferring team players who are not interested in looking out for their own interests but rather the interests of a group. This ensures that the group has a shared vision (Garthwait, 2017). Even though technology changes, I have made it my objective to understand the technology that is provided in the Office of Children and Family Services.

The goals and objectives outlined might be reflected back to the agency learning agreement as they will play a big role in understating the initiatives that are already streamlined, the development of new ideas and initiatives, as well as in the response of complaints and inquiries (Wayne et al., 2010). Through participating avidly in the office practices and initiatives, or at times with other agencies, it will be beneficial to all parties as tasks will be done more confidently and without fault. Since the personal objectives are in line with the vision of the company, the streamlining of the two will translate to professional developments.
