Multitalented Student with Business and Communication Skills

Discuss About The Development And Communication Professional.

I am a multitalented student with the ability to perform well in both academics and sports. I am good in business studies and communication both of which I have performed excellently since high school. I was the head of the business club while in high school due to my understanding and great passion for the business subject. Additionally, my good communication skills assist with my interpersonal skills, which has resulted in becoming a good sales person due to the ability to relate to various persons. The good salesperson skills assisted in getting a job at the local coffee shop. Additionally, I participated in sporting activities such as football and rugby. I have excelled in football since junior level, and I currently play for the university team. Moreover, I have first-hand experience in business as an employee at a local coffee shop where I was a supervisor. The experience assisted in knowing the challenges that face businesses and how to develop solutions to solve the problems. My inspiration is to become the best student in my class both in academics and in curriculum activities. Additionally, I would like to get better business knowledge and forge a career in business and communication.  The ability to understand how better to run a business increases the motivation to complete the course and have a clear idea of what I would like to be after university.

The reason I joined Asia Pacific International College was to take up a course in business at the best school in the country. The school has a record of producing successful corporate persons and entrepreneurs. The need to become a top businessperson inspired the decision to join a college with such a good record of accomplishment (Slide, 2018). Additionally, I joined the college to become independent in my decision-making and actions. Before college, I depended on my parents and older siblings to guide my decisions or make decisions on my behalf. Therefore, the decision to join the college was to be in a position to live by myself and make individual decisions. The decisions include such as the control of money and making major decisions about my future. Additionally, I joined the college since it accommodates students from many countries due to the international nature. The students from diverse nations assist to boost my interpersonal skills and to learn the different behaviour of people (Slide, 2018).

Joining Asia Pacific International College for Top-Notch Education and Independence

My plans include developing a strong career in business and communication. I believe that I can develop my career due to my interpersonal skills and experience in running a business while working at a local coffee shop. I believe that with the learning at the school I can become a strong and diligent businessperson with excellent communication skills. I would like to start my career by working with a fortune company as a trainee and gain the relevant experience to earn the top management position. Additionally, I would like to start my own company that deals with business consultancy and communication. My priority is to acquire the best knowledge in business by studying and researching to get a better understanding my field of study. Additionally, I would like to develop my communication skills by practising and interacting with various persons who expose me to different interactive situations. Moreover, I would like to join the business association at the school to get basic skills required in trade since the club exposes the members to real-life business situations.

Therefore, the college will help in developing my business communications skill and creating a strong career path.

My strength is creativity with the ability to develop solutions to problems within a short time. Additionally, I can come up with different perspectives of viewing an idea, which results in innovations in business situations. The ability also helps to build on ideas and come up with strong business plans, which improve operations and customer satisfaction. Moreover, I a good communicator with great interpersonal skills which assists in getting along with all kinds of persons. The ability could help in getting more customers due to the ability to convince persons and present myself differently to suit the requirements of each customer. Additionally, I am a committed and hardworking person with a lot of self-belief that I can succeed in what I set out to do. The trait assists in the successful completion of activities that seem complex. Moreover, I have succeeded in the starting of an online business. The business will horn my internet business skills, which is the current trend in commerce, therefore giving an advantage of coping with the changes in business (Pasteur, 2018).

I have weaknesses that I feel will cause problems in the achievement of goals. However, I am determined to correct the weaknesses before causing much harm in pursuing my goals. I struggle with the weakness of having a pressing need to do things faster and clear my to-do list. The weakness results in some poor performances in some activities that I feel should leave my activity list. Additionally, the need results in stress when I fail to accomplish some of the activities in time. The stress levels could rise resulting abandonment of the task and failure to perform other tasks perfectly as required. The weakness hinders my performance when under pressure which results in requiring a lot of time to accomplish a task. Moreover, I also tend to get nervous when talking to a new audience. The weakness results in the failure of actively talking to new persons, which limits my networks to only groups of persons that I know on a personal basis (Pasteur, 2018).

Plans and Strengths for Professional Development

I have a great opportunity resulting in a current enrolment in an online class, which offers international business and communication skills. The studies will help me stand out from other students due to the extra learning materials and scenarios offered in the online class. Additionally, the online class assists in exposing the students to business professionals where the students interact with the corporate icon in the country. The interactions will boost my confidence and assist in learning business and communication skills from the best. Additionally, I have qualified for a business seminar organised by the local government where prominent businesspersons will give speeches to the persons in attendance. The seminar allows job seekers and continuing students to get job opportunities and industrial mentors. The opportunity will assist in networking with the best and get a mentor to guide in my studies and in developing a career path (Pasteur, 2018).

The threats that I face while in school include the lack of first-hand business and communication experience. The school only offers theoretical learning without practical experiences in the areas of study. The lack of practical skills could result in problems while trying to adapt to the corporate world. Additionally, the lack of current experience in business will result in problems when searching for a job since most employers require workers with new business skills. Additionally, the threat of slow economic growth affects my chances of landing a job after completing university. The slow economic growth results in major staff layoffs and unemployment (Pasteur, 2018).

The further studies assist in developing a clear career path due to the learning activities and materials provided at the school. The college provides enough study materials to kick-start a career in business and communication. The school produces the most qualified persons to the market and employers give priority to the college’s graduates. Therefore, I believe that the advantage given to the students will assist in landing a job faster when I complete the studies.

Additionally, the school provides the chance to acquire critical analysis skills through the studies and interactions with other brilliant students. The critical analysis skills assist in making career decisions in the future. Additionally, the critical analysis skill assists in identifying the best opportunities to exploit in the corporate world.

Conclusion

Therefore, the college provides the best opportunity of acquiring business and communication skill and developing a successful career. The school can help achieve the goals with the various resources such as highly trained professors and a library equipped with proper reading materials. The college also offers other short courses, which develops the student’s skills and readiness for the job market.
