Presentation "One"

On Wednesday, Jess, Carly, and I gave our presentation on Motivation Theories and how they transfer into the workplace. If I’m being honest with myself, I think we could have prepared more, and practiced with the technology at least once. We could have related the theories into the healthcare industry rather than just going in to detail about them and explaining them, like one person said. As Professor Bonica said as well, we now need to research studies and articles that support our statements made. I think we could have added in some examples from studies done. We also could have had a better interactive section of the presentation, as a few peers suggested.

But also I think it went really well. In terms of content, we knew our information thoroughly and I think we did well with the delivery as well. Aesthetically speaking, I think our clothes were professional enough to meet the standards that we set for ourselves. The slides themselves also looked nice with simple bullets, pictures, and the video. Overall, I am very grateful for my group members.☺

I really appreciated all of the feedback we got yesterday. One of the main reasons I think this class is so interesting and helpful with professional development is because we are almost using this as a “test run” for the future. We are trying to improve ourselves to help each other become more confident and professional. Being able to discuss the presentation and the content objectively with people who want you to succeed makes it feel more meaningful and honest (because if one succeeds, we all do). And I think this supportive environment is one of my motivating factors for me to do well in this class.
