the team project
We have assigned into small groups to do the project. I have five people in my group including me. Since the project is pretty big, we need to meet up other than the class time. And I definitely realized working with other people is so hard!! Even to decide the time is hard thing to do. When we discuss about the project, you realize how hard to bring different people’s opinion into one. I think I am good at compromising but some are not; therefore, it takes forever to decide one tiny thing. If the future job is the extension of this project group, I don’t know what I am going to do.
diversity
I don't think diversity is necessary important because for business the most important thing is to be most profitable. A diverse company might look better in the surface; however, I don’t think a company should hire the person because he is minority. For example, there are tons of Indian doctors, Korean dry cleaners and Vietnamese nail salons. If they are doing fine by what they have been doing, why the change is necessary? I am minority and I still think diversity is something you can make it by plans.
my parents
My parents run a company. When they started first, they had no idea how to manage the company. As time goes by, I think they learned how to run a company and how to manage the human resource by experiences. I personally think the management is not something you can learn from by lectures. I think that’s why we have a lot of projects in our course. You need to have experiences to improve yourself in the position of manager.
what's management?
I came to Case to major Environmental Study however I had to double major with something. So I decided to major management concentration on finance. Honestly, I still don’t know what is management is. After talking MGMT 250, I think I am getting what it is; however, I don’t really think that’s really what I want to. I hope this class will get me more interested later on this semester because I don’t know what I am going to major if I don’t major management!
Hayland Software Company
I have received a E-mail from Hayland Software Company which I had an interview for the Mock Interview. It was an offer to send an online application. The E-mail also said that they are impressed about my resume and they want to move on to the next step. I was really surprised because I thought it was just a practice for the real interviews. At the same time, I was really happy to hear the company was impressed about me!
