Personal Narrative: My First Week Of St. Joe CEO Class

During my time at Hudson Partnership CMO as an intern, I have come to find that a Care Manager’s personality, ability to be nonjudgmental, and their gift to connect with children and families are just a few aspects that make them great. I have also observed the great results that come from building supportive child family teams. I have determined that my experience interning at Hudson Partnership CMO coupled with my educational background and my skills as a health educator makes me a great fit to pursue a career in the Clinical Mental Health field.

My reading teacher in 8th grade, Jennifer Burrows, has inspired me to be a better person and to thank God everyday for what I have. She most likely does not even know that she has inspired me because she inspired me just by me watching her. Seeing her everyday my 8th grade year was probably one of the most inspirational things to me.

As teenager, many people say their adolescence is one of the most important phases in anyone’s life. As a teenager, you get to experience many great events like going to high school football games, dating your first boyfriend or girlfriend, getting your driver license, and graduating from high school. As I look back, I believe that getting my first job was the most important event in my adolescence. I was very enthusiastic about getting my first job. I enjoyed that fact that I will be able to earn my own money and not having to ask my mother for any earn. Surprising, there was only one obstacle that was holding me back and that was the fact that I was a

This summer I had an opportunity to attend the CORO Leadership program, which was different than the internship I had last year at the Jewish Community Federation. CORO is a eight week program that helps students become civically engaged and assume leadership roles in our community. Everyday we had a seminar day in which we learned different topics, such as how to give an elevator pitch, social enterprise and grant writing. For seven weeks, everything I learned tied up with the San Francisco cohort community action project because the skill sets we learned helped us organize our project. For example, our topic is homelessness and we had to invite over fifty people to our event. The elevator pitch came in handy when we had a minute to explain to a stranger what CORO is and what our goal for the community action project is. This was a good experience because this program enjoyed putting the students on the spot. I often had to work in a group to give presentations that we had about four hours to prepare for. For social enterprise seminar, my group was assigned the issue, homelessness. After four hours of brainstorming, we presented our idea which was to build more affordable housing. Although it was a long process, and many investors had questions for us to answer, at the end of the day my group won.

My 8th 9th grade Science/oceanography Teacher Mr. Raven R.I.P. really engaged with those he taught and was one of the most brilliant people I have met, one day in the future I could teach classes Like him

Let’s be honest, every freshman is bound to get lost trying to find their way around school and I was one of them. I never knew that would be how I become a leader.

The administrative experiences that qualify me are the one and half years supervising the operations of 9 fraternity and sorority houses, supervising 9 resident assistants, desk staff, 5 facility assistants and the co-management of a community desk that serves over 800 residents. These experienced have exposed me to the facilities upkeep of traditional residence halls, apartment style buildings, and Greek houses. The experience has supported the growth and development of a situational leader, which has greatly helped in developmental conversations with student staff, adjudication meetings and crisis situations.

Seeing my parents collectively start up and run a successful business during my childhood made me wonder to how they were growing their business sustainably. Therefore, I am inclined to learn more about how to effectively manage and market businesses. One point I can derive from observing the amount of work my parents put into their company is: anyone can succeed in whatever they do, it is solely down to how much effort you put in.

This been a truly rewarding journey. Discovering my own abilities hidden within and sharpening my skills under the guidance of our professor. I feel like I was given a road map of an unfamiliar territory. Today I’m confident and motivated to continue this academic journey. I’m actually excited to take on next courses – totally opposite of how I felt before attending this class. This experience enhanced my abilities and creativity to overcome challenges that stand in my way to a successful academic

She once sat with the other wives of servers without thought of trouble and yet now she was always forced to move to another chair. A wife of a server who husband took care of anyone greater than another’s’ husband had right to demand this bit of respect. With her husband serving a Third Level, every wife of every working server had right to tell her to move. However, it was the wives of those husbands who served the Highest Levels who always took a cruel pleasure in telling her that they wanted her chair even if there were better seats nearby.

Lastly I hate to wake up early but there is one time i will wake up early is when i get t0 go hunting i just love to sit up in a deer stand in the cold

When we are focusing our visions, on what we can control, taking it by step-by-step, we start to mimic the reality of what we have been visualizing on, form a vision to reality. When I have to do a meet and great event, whether work related or family function, the day before, sometimes even days before I visualize myself being confident and enthusiastic, looking everyone in the eye, smiling, and shaking hands with everyone. Even visualizing other scenarios in case other situations develop that doesn’t go exactly as planned. So whatever happens I will be in control and the event will be a success. Maybe not CEO of a Fortune 500 company success, but it was a success, taken in steps.

The day…the DAY of our first Performance Evaluation, I showed up displaying the mirror image of how the service uniform should be set up. This was also the day we were to be inspected in our blues for graduation prep. This happened despite waking up earlier than normal just to have enough time to make sure everything was correct. I even looked up the dress and appearance reg to make sure I wasn’t working off of memory. Thankfully, my classmates were being very observant that morning and quickly pointed out my mistake. It’s true that no matter how smart you think you are, you can’t make it without other people in your life. There is the idea of the “unknown unknowns”. The only way to know those unknowns is to foster relationships with people

A leader is someone that believes in their vision as well as those they entrust to assist in the fulfillment of their vision. A good leader knows they cannot accomplish their goals alone and therefore are always developing others by equipping them to be leaders as well. My choice for leadership coaching is a gentleman who works at the hospital where my Aunt is a Registered Nurse. This gentleman has been a manager for their Critical Care Unit also known as Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for many years and holds a master degree, but he has recently been promoted to a leadership position as Hospital Administrator. This position is responsible for hiring, evaluating, recruiting and leading specialist doctors and nurses as well as consultant anesthetists,

My homeroom teacher at the time had the most impact on me than any other mentors I had. People say
