1. What is your style of developing others? Are you a shaman, a priest, an elected leader, a missionary, or a mystic healer in your approach to teaching? How did you develop your style?

I generate most of this additional stress. I tend to put myself in a state of fear and anxiety about things that is out of my control (Manning & Curtis, n.d.). My career with the Tennessee Army National Guard is the best job that I have ever worked for. Throughout my seventeen years of service, I worked as a paralegal, medic, and in human resources. I desire to continue to work in the Tennessee Army National Guard for thirty years, but current policies force me to retire when I reach twenty years of service. I am coping with this stress by pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Organization Leadership at Bethel University and then research further job opportunities when I get closer to retirement. The threat of downsizing has been on the agenda (Manning & Curtis, n.d.). I do not worry as much about it, because it mostly affects the removal of the job position after it becomes vacated. At times, I endure some levels of stress and reach a point of burnout at my job (Manning & Curtis, n.d.). Depending on the degree of stress, I take between one to two days off a month to get away from my office and prevent myself from burnout. Most of the time, this technique works for me. Each year, I take a two week vacation to wind down and relax. Another burnout prevention that seems to be the most helpful is running. I enjoy the feeling that I receive after a long run. This seems to minimize the level of stress
