Where am I going?
I have a specific plan for my career after leaving education. I would take up the job as a human resource officer.

Secondly, human resource is an important aspect of business; most of organizations nowadays view people as their most valuable resources. In fact, the part that intrigued me was the challenges derived from the changes in function and structure of HR department. HR is becoming a need for every aspects of day-to-day management, and job-seekers would find their jobs require more of generalists with more skills and competencies to perform multi-tasking (Larsen & Brewster 2003). Those are challenges as well as potential, on which you could learn and develop yourself.
Lastly, HR is also the area that fit my personality and skills, according to Prospect Planner online assessment (Prospect.co.uk). I had good matches, such as creative thinking, flexibility, logical thinking and etc, for job in HR area. There were some other professions that would suit me; however I chose to

My interest in pursuing a position as a school administrator for an elementary school system is to provide leadership for staff members and quality education for all students, and to become part of the world of education.

This assignment describes my own Professional Development Plan (PDP) for the first six months of my nurse registration. Following a PDP will show my commitment to Continuing Professional Development (CPD), otherwise known as PREP (CPD). PREP stands for Post-Registration Education and Practice and is a set of Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) standards and guidance that help nurses give the best possible care (NMC PREP Handbook 2006 p3); part of which is a commitment to CPD.

By following a PDP I will develop my knowledge, understanding
To manage the business, one must have a good experience and relevant qualification. The right qualification one must have is an MBA in order to have the right understanding and knowledge you must require. And experience is one thing that will come after a good investment of time in learning and development (miller, 2011).
Initially I thought that I had little research experience except for gathering information regarding falls and looking for solutions to prevent them. Then I began thinking about all of the times that I have turned to journal articles when looking for information related to best practices in patient care. I hope to learn to develop a better understanding of the research process and to conduct my own research in courses to come.
During my career as a human resources professional I have had the opportunity to be exposed to the diversity of several industries like Health Care, Manufacturing and Digital Content. These interactions allowed me to understand the role played by human resources, regardless of industry or line of business, is vital for any organizational success. Without people organizations would not function. My work experience has also provided me
I became really interested in the well-being of employees within a corporation. I consider that in order to obtain happiness and satisfaction of employees, human resources is very important for any type of business, even a small one.
For my discipline investigation paper, I interviewed a Human Resources Manager (HRM) named Stephanie Russo. Growing up, I always knew I wanted a career in business but had no idea which aspect I wanted to focus on. I began my studies at San Jose State University as an International Business Major then declared Business Management. After taking several human resource (HR) classes, I discovered that I liked the well-defined functions and task of the HR department. With no ambiguity, everything had an order, a policy and a procedure. As a junior, I am still uncertain of which

Working with people in the corporate world and understanding social behaviors is without a doubt a setting where I want to continue gaining experience and expanding my knowledge in. Idealistically I would love to see myself in a position where it would be intrinsically as well as extrinsically rewarding; I am at the age where I finally understand that money does not equate happiness. As a novice in the filed I do not yet have sufficient understanding of all the positions available with the degree in I/O. A plethora of occupations could benefit from the understanding of the fundamental principles provided by an I/O psychologist. While working at Ross, I catch myself observing the hierarchical pyramid of the HR department, trying to envision where I would love to see myself in 10 years. I am particularly intrigued and keen on learning more from the HR consulting sector of the firm, specializing in a variety of fields (i.e employee incentives, reward programs, benefits). However, I have also realized by observing the Vice President of the HR consulting firm that the stress level within the high level jobs in this particular employment area are ultimately very high. Supporting my realization, Pritchar, Hart, and Fuenton (1989) employment in the arena of HR consulting firms although they acquire a high starting salary, these specific roles also resonate high levels of pressure; “the overall amount of work demand” (28).
