Assignment 16A – What’s Your Secret Sauce?



Assignment 16A – What’s Your Secret Sauce?

Five ways in which I think I have Human Capital:
  1. Goal-oriented: I pride myself on my ability to set a plan for myself and be able to set these goals into motion. Once I start something, I do not want to stop working towards it until I am happy with the outcome. 
  2. Eagerness: My eagerness to learn how to become better and my ability to reflect on lessons allow me to grow as a person.
  3. Communication: Due to the intense amount of writing I have done, I have learned to be able to express my ideas clearly on paper and orally. I can get in front of basically any audience with having little to no nerves.
  4. Perfectionism: This is a blessing and a curse. I will try my hardest to make sure that every task or project I complete is as close to perfect as possible.
  5. Leadership: I naturally tend to take control of a group and organize members to complete the task at hand. I have learned how to take into consideration other opinions and methods of completing tasks.

  1. Hi Mady!
    I am a fellow perfectionist and I can attest that it is both a blessing and a curse. I always do my best to make sure everything is done to the best of my ability, but oftentimes I struggle with feeling like a failure when things don't get done exactly how I would like them to. Although I don't know you personally, all of the qualities you used to describe yourself are very telling of how hard you work and how much you care.

  2. Hi Mady. I think that all of the qualities that you listed about yourself are terrific qualities for a successful business person. I too can relate to being a perfectionist and the fact that it can be a blessing and a curse. You just have to come to accept that everything will not always go perfectly and learn to be happy with giving your best effort regardless of the result. I think you sound very strong and determined and will be successful in whatever endeavor you undertake.
