Describe five ways in which you think you have human capital that is truly unique.
1. Creative
As a public relations major, I learned that creativity is a valuable skill in any setting. For example, I am creative when brainstorming initiatives and social media posts/campaigns for my non-profit.
2. Compassionate
I am a compassionate person, and I serve as a mentor to children of all ages. In fact, I have also mentored children with Autism and other disabilities since I was in middle school.
3. Service-oriented
At a young age, my grandparents taught me the mindset of "service over self." Today, I still continue to give back work to inspire the youth in my community about how they can unite to create a sustainable community and planet.
4. Driven
When I set a goal, I put my mind to it. Furthermore, I work towards that goal until I achieve it. An expression I relate to is that it is essential to never give up.
5. Detail-oriented
When completing assignments or projects for my non-profit, I always make sure that my work is top-quality. I always make sure whatever I am working on is detailed enough and clearly conveys my message.
Interview the five people who know you the best.
1. The first person that I interviewed was my cousin Joey. The primary quality Joey emphasized was my compassion for others. He said that he admired my philanthropic work to provide clean drinking water to people in developing nations and that my selflessness makes him want to be a better person.

2. The second person that I interviewed was my first and second-grade teacher and Board Member of my non-profit, Mrs. Brown. One of the things Mrs. Brown explained was how she is in awe of my confidence, especially at Board meetings.

3. The third person I interviewed was my cousin Jaclyn. Jaclyn noted many qualities that make up my human capital. To note a few, she mentioned my organizational skills and sense of style.
4. The fourth person I interviewed was my Aunt Lisa, who is also the ESE Coordinator of the Martin County School District and a Board Member of my non-profit. She mainly emphasized was how I always have empathy towards others.

5. Last, but certainly not least, I interviewed my dad. My father noted many qualities about myself that make up my human capital. To summarize, these include my leadership skills, kindness, and dedication to being a positive role model for the students in my community.

Reflect on the differences.
There are no differences between the ways I see myself and how others see me. I also think my interviewees are correct about me because the notes I saw are similar to my list in part 1 besides the qualities that my cousin Jaclyn mentioned, but she was also very detailed in her interview about me in comparison to the others. I would not change my list in part 1 because the qualities I described helped mold me into the student and leader I am today.

Hello Adrianna,
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job on this post by giving such detailed description of your unique human capital. I also view myself as a dedicated individual who wants to achieve something big in the business world. I think it's great how you listed that you are service-oriented and like to give back to others, which is very important in our modern disconnected environment. Overall, I think you possess some great traits that truly make your human capital unique.
