Relationships

I would like to work with people who are passionate about

The same things I am

Being the best at what they do

Challenging themselves

When collaborating with others, I will bring the following
skills, traits or perspectives

A positive attitude to working

Willingness to learn from others

Openness

I would like to collaborate with people who value

Others opinions

Others values

Working hard to be the best

I will proactively build relationships by

Getting out of my comfort zone with tasks

I had to do this a few times with the interviews I gave

Asking for advice from others on how to be better
at my job

Making an effort to get to know people as friends,
not just coworkers

Professional organizations in my field that I could
join include

Milesplit

Flotrack

New Generation Track and Field

To me sense of belonging at work is

Feeling respected by others

A feeling of wanting to go to work

Sometimes people do not want to go to work because
of who works there. I feel like you should not feel like this if you feel wanted there

Ready for whatever is next

Tasks and Projects

Fairport article

I interviewed their top three runners about their season and their goals

I had to make an article out of their answers

Monroe-Woodbury article

I had to interview their top 2 runners and their coach over zoom

I had to take their answers and make an article out of it

I also had to do research of their times from previous races and previous years

Monroe County champs coverage

Wrote an article talking about the meet and what happened

Took photos of all the races

VVS and McQuaid coverage

Interview runners after their race wins

Film all of the races

Multiple previews of meets

A lot of work, seeing who was in what race and who would be good

Make the meet sound exciting

Do whatever is asked of me to the best of my ability

Skills

Interviewing

I had to do interviews with Milesplit and interviewing
people seems a lot easier than it is. You have to form questions pretty quick on the spot and sometimes it can be overwhelming.

Writing

I had to write a few articles for Milesplit about certain teams
and making whatever you are talking about sound interesting can be tough at times, so I pride myself on making running sound interesting for even non-runners

Camera and video work

This is also another thing I had to do a lot with Milesplit
and since Milesplit is such a huge organization, they can get easily critiqued on things like this. I think I take very good photo and videos and everyone at the company told me the same thing

Leader

I like to think I can speak up when needed, but not sound
overly critical of others when doing it.

Talking about running

Pretty much what I wrote in the writing section of this
but talking about running can be pretty tough, since it may seem like there isn't much to it, when there is a lot to talk about.

Values

Listen to others

Respect

Hard work

Understanding

Organization

Values for the organization I work for should include

Teamwork

Creativeness

Trust

Trust that whoever is publishing an article
or some sort of media that it is good

The organization that I work for will impact the community by

Making sure that the running community gets
to hear about what is going on

We provide stats and previews for multiple
races and sections

Allowing them to interact with our website

Providing resources to whatever stats they would like
about a local runner

Examples of organizations that may meet my expectations
for engagement and belonging include

Nazareth College

Milesplit/FloTrack

Manchester City FC

The missions of organizations I work for or lead
should include

Something about a positive outlook on the community

To be the best at what they do no matter what it is

To learn and grow from mistakes if made

To me being engaged in my work means

Focusing

Caring about what I'm writing about

Being creative

Diversity and Inclusion

I will be an advocate by diversity by

Acknowledging and everyone brings something to the table
and I can learn new things from everyone

Making sure everyone is heard

Making sure I am keeping a positive attitude towards
my work and my coworkers

I will promote fairness and respect by

Listening to others no matter their "rank" on the team

Telling people when they did something good for
me or the team as a whole

Acknowledging my own biases and privileges

I will help coworkers feel valued by

Letting them know when they did something good

Asking for advice on how to do something better

Letting them know I am looking up to them

I will create open and safe environments by

Not speaking over others

Letting others know I will listen to them

Advocating for those on my team

I will help others on my team grow by

Not being harsh on a mistake

It happens and we are all human

Letting them contribute their own skills
to the team

Engagement in my work sounds like

Feeling a sense of belonging sounds like
