For your final project assignment, you will analyze and reflect upon your role within an organization. You choose the organization. Some examples of organizations you can write about include an athletic team, classroom, work department, church, fraternity, sorority, community service, internship, clubs, activist groups, volunteer, etc. You are not limited to these options. Rather, this is a limited sample size to consider.
Construct a PowerPoint presentation that presents your ideas about your organization (Cache Bulldog Lady Soccer Team), (minimum of 7 slides that include both text and images)
Whichever option you choose you must include a Works Cited page with at least 5 sources.
As you develop ideas for this project consider the following questions:
- Why did you select this particular organization?
- What is your role within the organization? What do you contribute to this organization?
- How do you define this organization’s culture? (Consider how you define culture within this context).
- What skills and talents must one possess to participate within this organization? What skills must one possess to be successful within your organization?
- What is your organization’s hierarchy? In other words, how is your organization structured?
- What value do you bring to your selected organization? How does your participation within this organization enhance value in your life?
- Why do you participate in this organization?
- Write about your organization as if you were describing it to someone unfamiliar with it.
