Building relationships and in some cases friendships is very important in any career field. Healthy relationships provide positive reinforcement. For example, I have a friend who is also a coworker of mine and every time I want to have a meltdown she always have some encouraging words to say. After I talk to her I feel better and I excel in my work. Positive feedback is very important with everything that we do. I have experienced that in this class with my colleagues.
I appreciate all of the positive feedback that I have been given throughout this program from the instructors and my colleagues. I tried my best to make sure that I returned the favor to some of my colleagues as well. Having a support system is very important in achieving your goals. I wish all of my colleagues well as they continue their professional path. Good luck and well wishes!!!!

ReplyDeleteErica,
ReplyDeleteI have a colleague who I am friends with who often comes to me when she is feeling down, and I talk her through what it is that is bothering her, be it personal or work-related. Thank you for sharing with me how that must feel for her when I provide that support to her. I have enjoyed your posts and your insightful and thought-provoking comments over the past 8 weeks. I wish you the very best as you continue your journey as an ECE professional. I have established a Facebook Group in an effort to continue the network of community and collaboration that we have built as online learners here at Walden. I would love for you to join the group! at https://www.facebook.com/group/1547949048752833/ .
Best regards,
Pamela
