Abstract
I have had the experience of working in different industries and different-sized companies, and have to say that I know myself well enough to be able to predict my behavior under different situations with a great deal of accuracy. However, after working on this assignment, I have discovered nuances about myself that I would not have been able to calculate on my own. These small details guide my reactions in stressful situations, and the way I interact with other employees and my boss. Through this assignment and class discussions I have discovered about myself that contrary to what I had presumed, I am actually a team player, and function best when there are other people around with whom I can share and exchange ideas. Though I do enjoy managing myself rather than being micromanaged by an employer, I realized that I have this opportunity in a group environment. When working one-on-one with an employer, I often follow direction to the dot. I believe in having a mentor and following them blindly, especially in the beginning of a career. After all, one must know how to follow before being a leader. I have also discovered interesting things about how I handle stress, and what creates stress for me. Such information is critical to know how to eliminate or alleviate stress and create a comfortable working environment for myself.
