OBJECTIVES
1.In the field of education: To obtain an online teaching position in the fields of criminal justice, education, training, addiction or epistemology.
2.In the field of management: To obtain a position which includes training and employee evaluation, designing programs and developing future leaders. One of my main objectives is to develop employee confidence and individual as well as team participation in order to create the synergy needed to enhance production.
3.In an online position: I seek a part to full time job resolving customer’s complaints and answering their questions. It is always my goal to satisfy customers in order for them to return. Bad experiences as well as good ones are told to customer’s friends and families, therefore; they should always have a positive experience and representatives of the company should exceed the customer’s expectations. This is possible when exceeding customer’s expectations become a part of the team’s culture.
4.In the coaching field, my interests lie in organizational development for developing leaders for the purpose of promotion as well as mentor managers and leaders who are currently in their desired positions to make positive change.
5.In the field of addiction I aspire to become a counselor. I am without professional experience in this area, however; I have many years of living with, aiding and studying real addicts. My mother was an alcoholic, my partners have been addicts and one of my daughters is an addict. I, therefore have very personal experience and would consider this a lifetime project rather than a job because one cannot see something that they consider enjoyable as hard work. I have a knack for helping people.
