Reflective Journal week 12

 1. What did you actually learned from the unit.

I learned about collective bargaining and got a small glimpse of what it would be like to be part of a union. 

2. Discuss your feelings/experiences from the team activities? Did it change your opinion on the subject? If so, how? If not, why?

I liked reading/learning about my team members collective bargaining assignments and the differences they entailed. 

3. How you will utilize the information learned in your nursing practice.

From the movie assignment, I am going to continue to work on my communication skills. I believe that communication is huge in all aspects of life.

4. You personal feelings about the material covered.

I thought the material covered was good.

Personality Test

     a. The results of the test The result of the test for me was 'Steady'.       b. Was this a revelation/ new knowledge about yourself?

Not a whole lot, I found it interesting and pretty closely correct but I don't think I will do much with it, it is what it is and I am who I am.

(Kate) Consistently being late for work, leaving the jobsite before they were supposed to. Stealing supplies/equipment. What are some examples of reasons why you most commonly fire people? (Megan)  Pretty much the same as I just said, haha. And also lack of performance is a big one. How many chances do you give your employees to fix behaviors before terminating them?
