    Carl Roger’s person-centered approach views people as basically good, social, and practical, but that when their basic needs are not met they exhibit frustration and negative emotions (Henderson & Thompson, 2011). Further, counselors who work with this approach believe that people have the ability to manage their own feelings, actions, and thoughts (Henderson & Thompson, 2011). This approach allows the client to understand that they are competent (Henderson & Thompson, 2011). Further, Roger’s person-centered approach focuses on three concepts that help a person to gain a better sense of self; which are person, world, and self (Henderson & Thompson, 2011). The concept of person focuses on the person’s need to satisfy their needs; world focuses…

    Upon completing the StrengthsFinder survey, it is determined my 5 greatest strengths are the learner, achiever, competition, strategic, and relator, all of which I expected (Clifton, Anderson, & Schreiner, 2006).

The text in correlation with the materials provided from the StrengthsFinder survey brought forth meaning and depth into finding out exactly the type of person I am. Learning is listed as my top strength in the survey (Clifton, Anderson, & Schreiner, 2006). I believe I have used that trait extensively throughout…

    I believe an ideal NJHS member should be someone with a good character, someone who works well in groups, someone who is passing all their classes, someone who is willing to work before and after school if needed, and someone who is responsible. All of these things are important, because there is not always going to be someone around to tell them what to do and when to do it. So if they have these qualities, they can easily learn to work things out by themselves. An NJHS member should be someone who has a good character because you don't want someone who will just be mean to everyone and be rude when they disagree.…

Furthermore, it has pinpointed the industries and areas of interest I have been the most interested in after my career in the military.…

    My primary leadership style is democratic in nature, and depending on the situation, I will also utilize coaching, authoritative, and pacesetting. I am less apt to use the affiliative or coercive styles, simply because I am not as comfortable with those two approaches. At the beginning of projects, when there is ample time to decide on the direction, I try to include everyone in the discussion, asking for their input in the various decisions that need to be made. Once I’ve heard everyone’s input, I’ll work with the team to flesh out the best direction. If there is an item of contention that I feel passionate about, I’ll present my case as to why I feel my direction should be chosen to persuade the other members of the team.…
