Recommended: the role of a sports coach

Throughout this course, I have learned many things about business and things that have help me decided what career choice that I want to have. I have further decided that business was something that I do not want to do. I do enjoy business a lot, but I have found out that I want to be in education more. All the readings we had and all the faculty still intrigued me in class. I had interest in a lot of things we talked about throughout this course. I felt it was a very knowledgeable course to take coming in thinking about being a b usiness major. It has helped me decide what I want to do exactly with my life now.
I wanted to be in business to start because it is something that I always have been interested in. It is still something that I am …show more content…

It gave me a low down on how each discipline works within business and how some classes can tie into other majors along with minors. When coming into the college I was very interested in business and wanted to have a profession in it. When professors would come, and speak it would give me a general idea on if I could see myself doing this in my life or not. This made me more educated on certain areas of business and what they were like exactly. This led me to deciding that a degree or career in business is something that I did not want to do. Without these professors talking and discussing the different disciplines of business, I feel that it would have made it harder for me to decided that I didn’t want to be in …show more content…

Prior to college I could really see myself working within a bank around the area that I am from. Now, I have learned that I want to be a high school history teacher and a sports coach. Teaching was something that I kind of thought of, but not extensively until I realized that I did not want to be a business major. Coaching has always been something that I have wanted to do in my life. I have always loved sports and could always see myself coaching them one day. With my History Education degree, I hope to complete a coaching minor or coaching certificate so I can coach high school sports like football, basketball, or baseball. As time goes on and when I get some experience under my belt in teaching I could possibly see myself getting my master’s degree and becoming a superintendent or principal in a high

    I see that at every level (freshman, sophomore, junior, and senior) it not only gets more in depth but also gives greater insight to what is to come. One thing is for certain, what I learned throughout this course will help me in many ways outside of it. At my current job, I will now be able to look at the decision that are made more closely and understand them a little more (purchasing, marketing, etc.). One final aspect that helped me throughout this course was the peer-to-peer collaboration. The feedback I received after posting my debriefs and my PowerPoint helped me finish the final rounds with a little more confidence, even though I did not do all that

  • Examples Of Success In My College Career

    1158 Words  | 3 Pages

    Being in this class has benefited me towards my priorities. I was always one to procrastinate and I still am, but now I know how to do it in a smarter, more effective way. During this class, I found out how to plan my priorities. I had to think about my life priorities, semester priorities, and also my week’s priorities. All of these take time and dedication to achieve and procrastinating in the wrong way is not going to help. My life priorities were to graduate early, and receive my degree. The semester priorities were to pass all my classes, and also to take knowledge from the courses. My week’s priorities were a little more realistic, and they were to take time on my activities and to not be stressed about a small situation. These priorities are very important to me because I feel like these will lead me into the right direction for my career. This section of this course has had value toward my college career success. It has helped with life skills that I will be able to take farther in

  • Dual Enrollment Reflection

    With college right around the corner and taking a college course gave a real sense of how college classes are going to work giving me an edge over all of the other students going to college that didn’t take a dual enrollment course. Dual enrollment was honestly one of the best decisions I made in my academic career because like what I was saying this class taught me the inner workings of how most assignment are going to be turned in, what it means to be self-reliant/ on your own have no help with assignment from your parents, experiencing a course that only a handful of assignment rather than a ton of assignment ends up making up over eighty percent of your grade (getting you to work extra hard so you won’t fail) and finally that you have to actually interact with the professor/teacher if you need help or are having trouble with an

    The career path I want to take is to be an athletic director at a high school, and coach high school football. I decided to take this path with my life because I feel its stress free and I can handle the work. Being an athletic director requires a lot of things like bachelor’s degree and being able to work with teenagers and children. I was also inspired by Coach Carr and what he has done at Edgewood Academy by building championship programs and turning boys into men. The questions I ask myself are. How much money can I make, how many years do I want to work in this field, where will I live, how much money will I make in the field of coaching, and the job description? In twenty years I hope to be athletic director of a high school somewhere

    At the beginning of the semester my outlook on this course was not so good. I was not looking forward to giving speeches or learning things that seemed like common sense, but as time went on I could tell that I was actually taking things away from it. I have learned that I am not so good at coming up with things to say under pressure and I get extremely nervous when I have to talk in front of people that I don’t know well. Oh wait, I already knew those things. This class has motivated me to strengthen my social skills and has also taught me how to effectively work in a team environment through the team communication consultant project. I will show this by analyzing my teams strategic plan, the cohesiveness of the team, and the productivity of the team.

He responded by stating that the youth center has indeed received donations in the past from various individuals, none of which though are large enough to have a lasting impact on the organization. Although “they did help ease some of the problems at the time being.”

    Over the course of this class I have pieced together many things about my own life that before went unnoticed. I am now able to see things in a bit of a different light. Now that I have been introduced to the realm of psychology I understand some of the reasons for behavior around me. I have learned that there is a reason for most everything and a lot of our behaviors and mental processes can be explained through psychology. Studies have been conducted for many years to try and pinpoint the source of our behavior and it is not something that most people think about every day. Having a better understanding of why we operate the way we do will help me to better understand myself and the others around me.

I had the pleasure learning about how the educational system has come to be what it is today and who were the important people in the creation of the public education, like Horace Mann.

    736 Words  | 2 Pages

    This summer’s course in ‘Business and Society’ was a great opportunity for me to learn more about myself, my perspective of business, the role of government in society, policy makers and most importantly the views of the stakeholders. For the spring semester gone and this summer session almost all classes were tied into my major, giving me a better understanding on what I want out of my degree. My major here at Marymount Manhattan College is Finance and this class has surely helped me in figuring out, the workings of ‘big business’ and its impact on stakeholders.
