Introduction: This project has you prepare appropriate and efficient ways to answer questions in a selection (job or scholarship) interview in the role of an interviewee.
Directions: Research commonly asked interview questions and construct answers to any five selection interview questions. In such interviews, you can be more memorable and describe your strengths without bragging when you tell stories from your real life. This formula for answering selection interview questions allows you to be effective and efficient in connecting with your interviewers.
Start by naming some of your best, most marketable or employable qualities. Write down at least 5. Are you detail-oriented?: yes. Do you handle stress well?: yes and no. Are you an effective leader?: kinda. A team player?: yes but I like to work alone. Organized? A people person?: yes. Then think of examples from your experience that demonstrate your positive attributes. If you do not have a lot of work experience, think about volunteer experience, sports or extracurricular activities.: I worked as a caregiver for 3 years now full time .
I do volunteer, high school and for my church. As you frame your story, be sure to start by stating your attribute or qualification and put it in C-A-R format: context, action, result. Close by restating your personal attribute or qualification.
Here is an example of how to answer a popular selection interview question using the C-A-R format: How do you handle conflict between yourself and another person?: As a calm and collected person, I handle conflict by staying composed, listening actively, expressing my viewpoint clearly, and seeking a fair resolution through open communication and understanding.
* Statement of personal qualification
* Context (the situation)
* Action (specific actions you performed in the situation)
* Result (tangible results that occurred from your actions)
* Repeat your personal qualifications

please read instructions . I am thinking it’s to create a game or so. here’s the link to the tutorial.

If you have access to Netflix, watch The Social Dilemma.  This video will open your mind to critical issues affecting students and teachers.  Comment about how the various ditital platforms are influencing your life, as well as society as a whole.  Comment on how digital platforms affect student and teacher behavior, attitudes, and beliefs.
If you do not have access to Netflix, describe the charactertics and behaviors exhibited  by your worst leader.  Discuss how those behavior and characrtertics affected the effective of the organziation.  Indicate what you learned NOT to do when you become a school administrator.

In this discussion, you will discuss the impact of the values of leaders.
You must use the template provided at the end of these instructions to format for your post.

Your Replies **a minimum of 5 total reply posts total, reply to at least two people**
Join the discussion with your colleagues. No specific template is needed for your replies. Please keep the tone conversational, yet professional.
In your replies, consider the following points:
Do your values align with the values of the individual described in the poster?
If they align, discuss the potential mutual benefits of working together. Consider aspects such as enhanced collaboration, increased productivity, and a more fulfilling work environment, which could be crucial points to emphasize if you were seeking a position with them.
If they do not align, identify the potential challenges that could arise from working together. Explore strategies for mitigating these challenges, such as establishing clear communication channels, setting mutual expectations early, and finding common ground on shared goals or projects.
Reflect on the example provided about working with a leader who “needs improvement.” Offer some strategies for addressing the situation, or share a personal anecdote from a similar experience, noting whether or not it was successfully resolved.
**Make at least 5 reply posts total, reply to at least two people**
Some examples:
You can reply one time to five different people.
You can reply 4 times to one person, and 1 time to another person.
You can reply 3 times to one person, time to another person, and 1 time to another person.

Impact of Leadership Values, A Good Leader
Replace this text with someone you regard as a good leader, either from your past experience or someone you currently work with. You do not have to use their name (you can), just describe the situation and context.
The values they ‘Modeled the Way’ included:
value, value, value, value, value, value, and value
Replace this text with an evaluation of how closely your values aligned with those of the leader.
Replace this text with a discussion of how the degree of alignment impacted your performance, behaviors, feelings, interactions, team dynamics, decision-making processes, and contributed to the overall success of the organization.
If applicable, replace this text with a description of how this person helped shape you as a professional or impacted your career.
Impact of Leadership Values, A Leader Who ‘Needs Improvement’
Replace this text with someone you regard as leader who ‘needs improvement,’ either from your past experience or someone you currently work with. DO NOT use their name or the name of the company. Just describe the situation and context, but nothing personally identifiable.
The values they ‘Modeled the Way’ included:
value, value, value, value, value, value, and value (note, these could be negative values not listed)
Replace this text with an evaluation of how closely your values aligned with those of the leader.
Replace this text with a discussion of how the degree of alignment, or misalignment, impacted your performance, behaviors, feelings, interactions, team dynamics, decision-making processes, and contributed to the overall success of the organization.
If there was not an alignment, replace this text with a description of what was done (or not done) to resolve the poor alignment, or identify actions you wish were taken, or you would have taken.
The Role of Values and My Future Workplace Actions
Replace this text with a brief reflection on how you see your values influencing your professional decisions and actions you may take in your professional career or workplace. Also note any concerns you may have about the role of your values as it relates to these. Provide a genuine response; it is acceptable to express that you believe values may not play a significant role.

A goal of an infographic is to communicate a large amount of information in an easy-to-understand way. Your infographic should include the following components:
A title
Your definition of diversity
A summary of your research related to the three groups
A concluding section with examples of how individuals who work in schools may embrace a diversity-focused mindset that reflects cultural competence.

The Assignment
Using PowerPoint:
Create a dashboard from the company you selected in Week 3 to display five (5) KPIs related to the digital transformation effort. Be sure to include the 4 components of a KPI, as specified in the video, How to Develop Key Performance Indicators, for each KPI you indicate on your dashboard (Week 4 Reading and Supplemental Materials).
Note: Your KPIs will not be the same as shown in the
example dashboard below. Every company is different and has various
ways to measure success and risks. You may use a line, bar, or pie
graph, or a combination thereof to illustrate the status of each
indicator. Data incorporated into your dashboard may be fictitious so be
creative!
Propose three (3) potential leadership risks mid-level
managers may face as they work through the digital transformation
effort. Analyze the impact of each risk and provide a mitigation
strategy to address each risk.
Your presentation should be no more than two (2) slides (i.e., one
for the dashboard and one for risks and mitigation strategies),
excluding the title and references slide. APA citations should be
included, as appropriate, to support the mitigation strategy for each
ris

Comparison groups are one of the important elements to the scientific control of a research design.
Choose one type of comparison group from the list provided in the book and expand upon how the inclusion of this type of comparison group would improve the overall validity of the findings.
Be sure to provide an original response to this post then respond to at least two of your classmates’ posts for a total of three posts minimum.

The
Learning project report instructions
The Learning project is an integral
part of the learning process of the course. Real learning does not happen until
ideas are put into practice and tested. It is important that students not
only learn in the workshop settings of the course, but also students
“learn by doing”.  The learning project challenges students to
plan and conduct a project where they apply principles and practices of
leadership in a “real life” situation.  This could include
activities such as enhancing your leadership practice with an existing group or
organisation, working with existing leaders, or contributing to a leadership
initiative.  The learning project can be based on a workplace or community
situation incorporating your normal work or interests. There is also sound
evidence that leadership is best learned in personal situations.
An excellent project would include:
Consideration of new concepts and skills
learnt that stand out for you.
Test several new leadership skills and
concepts in a small, low-effort, real world situation during semester, to
gain new insights, Identify what you might do to design or re-design
future work to show how you will apply new skills and concepts to get
better results
Not all students may be able to conduct
an active project directly with a current group or leader.  There are
various other options (least preferred since these offers you less practical
learning).  For example, with the input and approval of the course
facilitator, a learning project could be based on one of the following
activities:
Observe a situation appropriate to leadership
and analyse it using the relevant concepts, frameworks and techniques from
the course
Review, analyse and redesign a past activity
or leadership situation from your experience.
Time is set aside during the early
workshops or zoom meetings for students to develop their learning project plan
with guidance from the course facilitator. Please discuss your options with the
facilitator. During the semester, please contact the course facilitator if you
have any questions or need any guidance with your learning project. Module One
slides and papers provided in Learning Resources area offer example situations
in which past students have practised and developed their leadership skills.
Participants must submit a written
report on their learning project. Full instructions will be given and discussed
early in the semester. Your learning project report should build on your
learning project plan but you won’t be held to anything that you included in
your original learning project plan. You need to layout your learning project
report in the way that you feel is best. Using the four phases of the Learning
Cycle can be a useful framework for describing your learning process. The
following is a possible format for your learning project report, but you may
choose to do it another way provided that it includes sufficient content.
Possible Format
Introduction
Briefly outline what issue, problem or
opportunity your learning project addresses. Describe why your learning project
is important and relevant.
Context
Brief detail of the background in which
you are operating as it pertains to the learning project. This situation
analysis need not be extensive but should cover the main points that make your
learning project important in your work context.  You need to have a clear, logical description
of the issues, problem or opportunity that your learning project addresses. This
need to be clearly connected to the context and the learning objectives of your
project.
Objectives
Provide a succinct statement of what
you sought to achieve with your learning project. These should include your own
learning objectives for your leadership development.
Activities
Briefly describe how you conducted your
learning project. Don’t just list actions, describe the logic of what you did
and why. Describe what happened – how things went doing your project. Describe
what occurred as a result of your learning project such as what changed in the
situation, what benefits occurred, how a desired outcome was achieved or not
achieved, and importantly, what you learned from testing and improving your
leadership practice. Describe the principles of leadership that relate to
approach to the project – these may be from the course content, from readings
or other literature or principles that you feel are important from your
own experience. Describe how you know that what you did was leadership and not
management, particularly by comparing your action to the Five Practices of
Exemplary Leadership (Kouzes and Posner) and the course definition for
leadership.
Critically reflect on leadership based
on what occurred during your project and draw out insights into leadership. Are
there any aspects of rural leadership that you think are particularly important
because of your experiences with your project? Describe whether you achieved
the objectives of your project and if not, what prevented you from achieving
them. Detail what you learned, including improved confidence, understanding and
skills in leadership, and contrast this with principles and approaches to
leadership. Discuss what you would do the same and differently next time. This
section should be a major part of your report and make sure that you include
references.
Conclusion
Draw together the main implications of
your learning project and how your new insights and improved leadership skills
can be used to get better outcomes in your life.

According to Forrester Research, more than 90% of enterprise AI decision-makers globally intend to employ generative AI for internal and customer-facing applications. The present skill set limits, the inability and fear of moving faster, and the current systematic data silos are enormous impediments. Companies must shift to a data-product-centric approach and eliminate customer-facing data silos. Revenue product data roles that serve as customer ambassadors and data curators will assist commercial leaders in maximizing short-term gains while adhering to their long-term plans. 
Please notice the comments on the side of the document, as they are quite self-explanatory. Additional comments: 1. has to be much “crispier.” 2. Any references to research has to be inside the text (as is now) 3. ” I got a little lost one some of the key ideas—data product, organizational transformation, etc.—and then wondering about the AI connection, etc. I feel like you are packing a lot of dense points into one bullet, so would try to make these more succinct. Feel free to add more evidence, report references, etc from existing research. ”
