Peak Performance Self Assessment
My results from the Peak Performance Self-Assessment Test show I have several opportunities for growth (Bethel University, 2013). One of the lowest scoring skills was money management. Money management is something I have struggled with for the last 10 years. However, I made a new year’s resolution that I would learn how to budget my money. I have not perfected a budgeting system but I will continue to work on this issue. Another low scoring skill was confidence. In the past, I have failed college English twice. Consequently, failing those classes have made me less confident in my writing ability. To conquer this fear I plan to refresh my basic writing skills and dedicate more time to school and research. I also believe that the critical criticism

    Analysis Of An Open Letter To Ninth Graders By Patrick Sullivan

    1). Sullivan discusses the topic of preparing for college and aims his discussion towards high school freshman and college students. The students he has found prepared enough for college had no difficulty reading materials of multiple ranges and subjects since they “loved to read” (pp. 1). Furthermore, students that are prepared know that exemplary writing takes exemplary effort, and they come willing to comprehend, study, converse, and evaluate their written works. Additionally, listening and thinking influences the different ideas that we can develop; this can affect our self-development and mental capabilities, which can increase opportunities for further engagement.…

    Rough Draft: Communicating Ideas

    In English I wrote a letter to my parents were I was not good at writing and speaking. Also, I notice that when I read my paragraphs it wouldn't make sense I was a terrible writer my paragraphs wouldn't focus in one thing. I think I have gotten better at writing and speaking because when I read the gratitude letter to my teacher, friends to correct me and correct the mistake that I made in my rough draft. I have improved by reading it to other persons. Also so when I used to read it to my parents I would stutter and get nervous.so that's how I improved in my speaking, writing. Also, the part I need to improve was in my listening because I wouldn't listen when people would correct me. I wouldn't listen to them when they were speaking or giving lessons how to get better in speaking, writing. so that I would improve. I now listen to people that give me lessons on how to write, speak better because they hear me and read my paragraphs. So now I improve in a lot of things because I get lesson from other people. If I wouldn't listen to people that give me advice about my paragraphs I don't know where I'll be right now. So that how I have grown in the different sections of skills for academic…

    Rhetorical Analysis Of My Writing

    Personally, I’ve always felt I was a decent writer in all aspects regarding research and personal narratives. Considering those are subjects that interest me and that I love to read about. I struggle the most when it comes to making my writing hold a deeper or hidden message when the topics I am told to write about don’t interest me. Having to do rhetorical analysis with old literature and having to explain the main idea was my number one struggle in AP language and composition senior year. But other than that I felt, throughout high school, I enjoyed writing and taking a majority of the writing classes my school had to offer, not only because it was required but because it was something that teachers and myself felt I did acceptable work.…

    Academic Success Questions

    I’ve always felt that writing was one of my stronger points but it has been many years since I’ve had to do any academic writing. I’m mostly concerned about my grammar; I have forgotten the proper places for comas and semicolons. The ability to get my thoughts together in the proper order are also a concern for me. When it comes to reading, I’ve always struggled. I have a hard time remembering what I read, sometimes it’s as if I’m just seeing the words and not retaining anything.…

    Personal Narrative: My Writing As A Writer

    Throughout the year, my writing has had significant improvements, compared to where I began. First, I began this semester fairly confident in my writing abilities. I thought that I had a strong grasp on writing concepts that include: transition words, literary devices, proper grammar techniques, correct paper writing format. In contrast, I felt that I began the year with a weak vocabulary, which has always been one of my weaker areas, If I were to rank myself on day one of class, without knowing all of the material we were going to cover, I would rank my writing skills an eight out of ten.…

    Personal Narrative: My Personal Leadership Resilience

    I learned from my score that I am “a moderately resilient person” (Allison-Napolitano and Pesult, 2015, p.14) and “fairly confident” (Allison-Napolitano and Pesult, 2015, p.14) in my abilities. I realized that I am very comfortable in handling crisis at work and in leading and directing staff through stressful situations. I am confident in instructing staff on patient care, documentation, regulations, encouragement, dealing with difficult patients, how to improve their organizational skills, how to achieve their professional goals, and looking at things from an employee perspective. I found that I am very confident in meeting with peers and those that I report to. An area where I see an opportunity to grow is in handling personal criticism and people that are indifferent towards me. I like everyone and can usually find some glimmer of positive appreciation for them. I truly care about those around me and struggle when people are clearly rude and hurtful toward me. I am ok with others not agreeing with me or choosing another colleagues design over mind, but people that misinterpret my intensions or form a dislike for me following a ruling that I make, stays with me and hurts. I appreciated the teaching and guidance from the lecture this week, regarding not taking things personally and learning from the…

    Performance Evaluation

    This is the InterClean performance evaluation in which not only management will measure the performance of the employee, but the employee will give their input on where they think they are in the areas of position responsibilities, job knowledge, overall strength of employees in current positions, initiative and innovation, quality and accuracy of work, dependability, productivity, etc. As for the employees that we acquire from Enviro Tech for this department, we will evaluate their past reviews accordingly. The employees and management will be given a one month deadline to have their portion of this evaluation completed. At that point a meeting should be set up with the manager and sales representative to evaluate the sales rep’s performance. During this process, each will discuss each area and bring their measurements to the table. After bringing this information forward, the will come to an agreement for the final submission of the performance evaluation. Also attached is a goals and objectives form for the sales rep and sales manager to agree upon for the next year. The main reason for this portion of the process is so that the goals of the sales team can be discussed and everyone on the sales team can be on one accord. This is also for accountability, so that everyone cannot say that they were not aware of the departmental goals. Personal goals are also encouraged during this process. These personal goals can be anything to help the employee do a better job, for example an employee may feel that he needs better organizational skills or better communication skills. They must provide a plan that will help them reach their goal successfully.…
