GLG Reflection Journal

                 


The GLG is a well recognized organization in New York which seeks to impart wisdom and educate future learners for the future. It started in 1998 and soon developed networking to enhance and further spread its name throughout the globe. Their mission was is have a one-on-one learning session with incoming knowledge seekers and impart educational advice for which they can then use to take them further into the workforce. They have people whom are practitioners of business leaders, scientists, academics, former public sector leaders, and specific subject matter specialists. They all have at least one great and virtuous quality in common, the sense of leadership and the willingness to share it with others. Having a membership with the GLG will give further insight into these well-known industries: corporate, hedge funds, the industrial workforce, investment banking management, the law, life sciences, private equity, tech (including media and telecom), as well as professional services.

"GLG is driven by the curiosity of approximately 1,400 employees around the world who are transforming the way the top professionals share expertise and learn." 

1) What was your motivation for starting GLG?
2) Would you be open to change the company if possible to enhance the company?
3) Is there any problem that the company suffers from?
4) What is the avg. amount of salary earned for a mentoring position ?
5) How is the company designed to function: office work, collaboration, or one on one with individual efforts?   

                  After experiencing the GLG trip tour, most of my questions were answered indirectly through the GLG tour. Many of the employees relate back to how their past has shaped them into the person they have become and thus have made them into efficient workers in GLG. Another interesting example would be how the CEO of the business had an instance of when he himself was working at GLG but got kicked out for not having a phone operational in his office. After coming back in the next day, he resumed work as normal. His indirect message was to stay true to his work and be courageous enough to come back for the sake of his job and career.

                              The objective of this lab was to create a rock, paper, scissors game though the use of JavaScript. This lab was specifically a challenge due to the troublesome errors that're associated with such game specifically with the JavaScript. With the experience of code Academy, I've learned that code Academy teaches JavaScript on a different level which is the basics which don't correspond with what we used in this lab. The Javascript used was from a reference website that's not from w3schools.com. Since the refereed website is much more detailed when it discusses the code for the rock, paper, scissors game; it was wise to refer to this website. The Javascript is actually a bit more complicated but by interpreting it on an advanced level, I've acknowledged the game and its process of making it.                   By completing this lab, Javas...

OSHA Labor Laws

                   This workshop gave a better insight into how government regulations help protect workers and how we should pay attention to these laws ourselves.  By knowing more about these OSHA laws, it can help better prepare us for future injuries as well as future shortcomings that may impact us negatively. By countering it properly, it can help us cope with these misfortunes by knowing more about these labor laws. In this workshop, it's taught us that whatever may come as a result or working, it must be notified to the supervisor or the boss of the workplace so that it can be dealt with properly. There was one video where it demonstrated a girl's issue with the workplace where she suffered a disastrous injury which crippled her for life. By seeing this video ourselves, it has taught us that no issue is ever a small problem since it can escalate due to such overwhelming consequences. By knowing more that before, we are now r...

WBL Reflection journal

                Throughout my high school experience, I've learned to use my WBL experience for it to become a valuable asset in the future. Due to instilled values that are gained throughout the process, it's made me a better person in understanding the workplace in current time. I've learned to pace myself in the ways of an employed person throughout my internships and even in the classroom. Plus, it's given better control into how I perceive the future outcomes of assignments and my own decisions as well. Although, my WBL experience would've really come in handy before, I'm truly satisfied to having learned such wisdom before going to college.                 My years of being an ITHS student having given such values that have made me a better and insightful person both in school as well as outside of school. For instance, developing patience is a key in dealing with critical situations by having a...
