Today we worked on a art piece of our home country. We added a lot of information about celebrities and the president of the United States who has been very prevalent in the news lately. It was interesting working with people from the same country and getting their insights on ideas. This aspect will be going into our marketing plan scheme, talking about external markets.

The Constant Gardener

November 27th, 2017

For the second half of class we watched a movie call "The Constant Gardener". Although we watched bits and pieces of the movie and didn't catch the some of the main scenes, it was a really interesting movie. What I learned the most from this movie is about never giving up, and figuring out every detail until you know everything. In this case, he was trying to figure out the death of his wife. Even through the horrors of a death very close to you it needs to be figured out so this doesn't happen to anyone else.

Stress

November 22nd

School, work, and all types of activities are stressful. We talked about how managers can help those who are feeling stressed to help them cope and best that obstacle.

Carlos Holemans

Today we had a guest speaker who was very interesting and very rewarding to here from. Carlos Holemans is a well known person in the advertising industry in which he has won over 100 international awards from it.

One of the ideas he was talking about was how Santander was teaming up with FIFA to be a main sponsor for LaLiga. It was interesting learning about how the video was made as well as how it is supposed to portray to the audience.

What I took from this was that in order to be successful and hard working you need to feel the emotions of others and base your information from that. 

Interviews

JOB INTERVIEW

• Requires four pieces of information
• Why are you here?
• What brings you to our company?
• What kind of person are you?
• How much are you going to cost?

This is ultimately the questions you're going to be asked in an interview so it is very important to know your facts and the personal growth you will bring to a company.

European Curriculum Vitae

November 13th, 2017

Today we worked on resume in both our native tongue and a European format. It was very cool to see the differences between the two resumes and to also see how other countries create their resumes. I found this class period really interesting to see the progress we are making in the class and to also make sure these resumes are all good and ready for us to take on the world!

Resumes

November 8th, 2017

Today we worked on resumes and cover letters. These are very important for our future because the execution of these professional documents can outline where in life we are going to go. It was very helpful being able to do these in class as we have someone of higher authority giving us direction and helping us with making these letters shine.

How Many People Could You Know?

November 6th, 2017

      We watched a Youtube video in class today called "Six Degrees of Separation" which was the way in which people could meet other people through people they know. I know that this is very confusing but it makes sense once understood. The person giving the speech was telling his audience that if everybody had 100 contacts or people they knew those 100 people will have 100 contacts each which could build your contacts. One example he talked about was how many people would it take for him to be in contact with the Pope. His answer was around 3-4. This had me very surprised as it seems like his authority and higher representativeness would become harder for outsiders to get in contact. He said that he knows someone in a church that knows a bishop who knew the Pope in school. It's crazy how that all works.
     What I've learned from today's class was that it doesn't matter where you come from "the world is so small" and if you work hard and find the right people you will be able to do anything in life.
