Farewell mgt 3120.......

Anyone thought that this class was boring?
I never saw anyone in the back snoring
It isn’t an easy subject to teach
I’m sure if the Prof. had a choice he’d be on a beach
For making this class fun he definitely was a good fellow
Please tell me who else gives his class jello?
Now I move on to Mgt 3121
I doubt that class will be any fun.
I will leave saying one thing to Prof. K,
For this poem I definitely deserve an A

Who doesn't like blogging for management????

I have to say that writing a blog for the management class was a really good idea. Maybe the blogging style can be modified a bit so that way it’s a more personal way to contact your fellow classmates. Having a picture of yourself is definitely a must when it comes to the blog. If you are blogging on someone else’s page and you have no idea how they look or who they are it sort of ruins the purpose of interacting with your classmates. You could literally written on some person’s blog two minutes before class and then just passed them going into class. That’s just wrong, you should know whose page you are writing on.Other than that I do not think the blog needs to be changed. I found it very interesting and fun. Definitely something that should be kept.
Making the blog part of your grade is also a good idea. It is such an easy way to make sure you get an A in something in the class lol….All you have you to do is give your opinion on a subject and then respond to other peoples opinions and you have an A. Being able to easily control your grade like that is very good.
I don’t think I will continue writing on this blog because I just don’t have the time to sit down and write my thoughts. It would be a waste of time to continue because whose really going to sit down and read my thoughts. It just something that won’t happen. Still this blog is a great idea and definitely should be kept for future classes.

Dominance, wouldn't change it for the world

My Results from the personal profile system diagnostic indicated that my primary profile is type D. My secondary type is a C. This test couldn’t have been more exact as to the person I am. I like things being done the way I want and when I know I’m right I do not budge for no one. I don’t mind working in groups but I preferable like working alone. I feel that when I’m working on my own I know that my task will be done to the best of MY ability. If I have to rely on someone else to do something I get very anxious and it just becomes a very uncomfortable situation for me. Being dominant is something that is a gift and a curse for me. In some situations it can help me out, but in others it can put me a very big predicament. I’m very happy that I’m a dominant person, but if I had to change I would decrease my dominance a bit and try to even out my conscientiousness, my steadiness, and my influence. If I could still be highly dominant but also a bit of everything else it would make for a very well rounded person.
I’m very sure that I can become the other types. To become a better person you have to make sacrifices and if that means I have to change my character well then so be it. At this age you are still molding yourself to be the person you want to be in 10 years. Is possible? Yes. Is it probable? No. I like who I am and who I am becoming. I may have my bad qualities but who doesn’t?
This test definitely would help me in personal interactions. I’m exactly the same person whether it is in a business relationship or a personal relationship. It would help out thought figuring out what someone else is and what type of person they are. I think it is helpful for management to use this test as a way to determine management types but only if it has been tested numerous times to make sure it is right. Using this could allow management to determine what type of person is needed for a certain job or what type of person you have already working for you. No matter what any tests tells you the best way to see the type of person someone is, is by interacting with them. Allowing for this interaction gives Allowing for this interaction gives you firsthand what a person is all about
