The speakers at the CBAD 120 retreat brought energy and a wealth of knowledge of starting your own business. Adam Rice and Meghan Tarmey brought information regarding how effective teamwork reflects directly to the success of a business and their personal experiences regarding it. Also, the information they provided can be directly linked to topics learned in CBAD 120 and the students in the class can use some of the information to improve upon the business plans they have been working on throughout the year. Overall the information provided if put into action in one’s own life is extremely valuable. Adam Rice’s presentation was primarily focused on the relationships with clients, the culture of the business, and work ethic to reach one’s …show more content…

She wants to move to a more marketing based business that is something that I have been moving towards in my business plan. She was able to create a client base and then she is moving towards using her client base to become more marketing based. I intend to use this to change my vision statement. Also, Meghan started her business without borrowing any money from anyone. She was able to make decision and not have to answer to her shareholders or pay off debt. My business plan has me spending too much money paying back debt and too much time will be spent answering to investors. The ability to be free from the obligations of the debt allows owners to spend more money on the business. I believe if we scale back our business we can accomplish the lack of debt but have more room to grow and without too many investors we can have more equity and allow us to own more value. Adam Rice’s focused vision statement is something I think can help with our final business plan. Adam said that that he hopes to have 100 gyms by 2022, he will franchise gyms. The business plan we currently have has a weak vision statement and after listening to Adam, I think I can create a sound vision statement. Also, Adam talks about how the consumers must know you, like you, and trust you. Our business plan is focused on building a customer base at first and at some point finding a way for our customer base to make us more money in other areas, such as marketing. We will use Adams mindset of the customer is always right to enforce that in our company, we will possibly change our mission statement to include that service is paramount. The speakers provided many points that will allow my group's business plan to become more streamlined and

ASAM 100 has been one of the most insightful classes I have taken in college—so far! Through this class, I was able to learn a great deal about my culture and about myself as a person. In retrospect to my first “Why ASAM?” essay, I still believe that it is important for everybody to learn about their culture sometime throughout their life. I was able to learn about various topics such as: the issues of my culture, the traditions of my culture, how others view individuals of my culture, and more. Throughout this class, I learned about the Model Minority Myth and its effect on individuals of Asian background, I learned about issues that other Asian Americans faced through the video, Asian American Voices, and I learned to grow as a writer.

I have made many connections with MAT 139 this semester. When I was in the tutor program we were required to get some field experience by helping students. I chose to help three and four year olds with math. Although the material was adding, I was able to apply the skills I learned in the tutor program to teach the kids. My teacher in MAT 139 would show us multiple ways to solve a problem so when teaching the children I would use more than one method to get them to learn the subject matter (Hammond, pg 2).

I am very thankful for the opportunity to intern at the Waterfront Public School and having the chance to work with two very different students with DD. This experience gave me a better understanding of how the Toronto District School Board (TDSB) employs DSWs and how they value our role within their classrooms. I was fortunate enough to work with a collaborative team of staff that encouraged my professional growth by allowing me to assess and implement new teaching strategies. This team also provided me with much needed feedback and criticism along the way, which I valued and learned from. In addition, this education support placement allowed me to fulfill many performance elements related to learning outcome seven of the DSW Program Manual.

Evaluation about Clients’ Satisfaction after Participating in FFT I am interested in evaluating the clients’ satisfaction after participating in functional family therapy (FFT). The clients include adolescents who have received a diagnosis of conduct disorder and their parents, so I will compare perceptions of adolescents to perceptions of their parents. I would identify adolescence clients through references by other agents including prisons, family courts, or clinics in the United States. The participations can be people who are from different cultures, races, gender, colors, and different sexual orientations. This study consists of their parents, so I would identify participants through selected adolescence clients’ families.

Coming into the U450 class on the very first day, I was prepared for notes and learning specifically about the RA position and what it entails, but instead I learned more about myself and what drives me. I didn’t learn techniques about the job instead I maximized my capability of communication, being vulnerable can help people understand you better, and I was able to reach another level of trust in others. On the day where we all sat down and told each other about something that had deeply impacted us, I didn’t know if I could do it at first but hearing other stories allowed me have this mutual trust with my advisors and classmates I couldn’t of previously imagined. Previously, being vulnerable and showing the difficulties of my life, I saw

During my time at CCAC I learned that it is very important to have positive relationships and supportive interactions as the foundation when working with young children. I now understand, what it means for activity’s and assignments to be developmentally appropriate, to me this means keeping the children’s age in mind for example; a two year old is not going to sit calmly for a twenty minute circle time. I also had a reminder not to judge a book by its cover for example if a father and mother come in and they don’t have a great profession we should encourage them in a positive way because they are doing the best they can so their child has a positive outcome.

My father owned a small landscaping company, and I proudly considered myself his partner. The manual labor was exhausting and it never seemed the days would end. Being a small family business, it was up to everyone to contribute to make it successful. Surely, my attitude during that time wasn’t always intent to cut grass or build rock walls as I watched my friends have more fun than myself, but the experiences I received would become invaluable, and would far outweigh my lack of free time. I was taught the importance of working hard, being honest, being grateful for what I had and taking the time to help others.

The company’s first vision statement ought to be that it intends to become the SI unit in all things hospitality, by provide well priced quality products. The advantage of this is that it goes a step further by explaining to all how it intends to get to the top.
