This week you will continue your journal activity this time concentrating on the materials studied in Module 2 that were assigned for this week. Writing in the journal should be drawn from the chapter readings, exercises, discussion boards, and assignments. As journals are a personal construction, your journal entries should reflect what you have learned that you feel was important to your growth as a manager. You can relate this to personal experience and/or to your expectations of what it will be like to manage a department.
This is a graded activity and you will receive the grade just for recording in your journal provided I can see that you have treated the activity seriously. Journals are not right or wrong but simply a reflection of you beliefs based on learning and experience.
Food for thought this week:
- Is the flow of information organized properly in your organization?
- Would the TRAF system benefit you and other managers in your organization?
- Do you prioritize your activities well
- Are you involved in cross functional team building?
- Have you ever used PERT or Critical Path analysis?
