In two diferent paragraph give your personal opinion to  Samantha Jordan and Marla E. Stuck

 

Marla E. Stuck

Strengths:  Determination, continuous learner/current, experienced leader, 20+ years of Human Resources experience.

Weaknesses:  When exhausted my communication is too direct can be seen as harsh, and not being a team player.

Opportunities:  The additional master’s degree makes me more marketable in the health industry.  Currently participating in CHRO position finalist interviews at a different company.

Threat: Loss of job or duties if I cannot play the game.  A lot of HR professionals in the market.

Plans:  I have already started the action plan as self-reflection showed I was not the fairest of them all.  I am no longer working 16-hour days, 7 days a week, and trying to take some time for self-care and sleep.  Taking better care of myself reduces my stress level.  I am also using a program that reviews my communication for tone, attempting to soften the tone in my messages.  I apologize when necessary if my communication sounded harsh.  I am looking at opportunities to move to a new organization where human resources is a partner and are respected as a senior member of administration.
