Strengths (What do I do well?) |
Weaknesses (Where can I make improvements?) |
|
· I have great organizational skills. I am able to take something that is in complete disarray, whether it be a messy desk or a disorganized department, and get to where it is in a state of complete efficiency and order. · I am able to problem solve with ease by looking at the problem from all sides and finding the best solution. · I am a good team member, whether I am the leader or part of the support team. I am able to adapt to whatever role I am needed to play. · I am a great listener. I try to really listen to what people are saying to understand what they are truly tying to convey. · I am a very fast learner. I tend to pick up on new information/procedures/systems very quickly. · I am a good researcher and am able to utilize many tools to find information needed. |
· When I find a task boring, I tend to procrastinate in completing it. · I doubt myself a lot. Even though I know I am capable of many things, I sometimes let my fears hold me back. · I tend to stay within my comfort zone too long, instead of taking risks. · I get nervous when having to talk in front of new people, whether it be in an interview or some sort of presentation. · Since I am a fast learner, my patience wears thin for those who don’t.

Opportunities (What kinds of things could I be doing based on my strengths?) |
Threats (Where could I be using my strengths and talents more productively?)
|
|
· I would like to utilize my organizational and problem solving skills to create a more streamlined purchasing process at my current job. · My research, organizational, and problem solving skills would be good for a career in criminal justice. · I would like to organize a team building event for my job in which different departments could learn to work together better. · Most of my strengths would be beneficial in a Human Resources environment. · I would like to be able to take one more class per term in order to achieve my Bachelor’s Degree faster. |
· If I don’t start taking risks and trusting in my strengths, I will be stuck in the same unrewarding job. · I will have a lot of competition in the job market from the younger generation when I finally receive my Bachelor’s Degree. · Current family obligations may prevent me for giving 100%, or above, of my attention and/or time in order to prove myself as a valuable employee/manager. · If I don’t overcome my nervousness in public speaking, future employers may perceive that as not being a strong leader. |
