Work Ethic

I learned that work ethic is usually divided up into three categories: Interpersonal skills, initiative, and dependability. Individuals with good interpersonal skills are often very good at communicating, whether it be in their professional lives or personal lives. They also work very well in groups, and are great when interacting with consumers or clients. Workers without initiative usually procrastinate or miss some golden opportunities which can lead to the loss of a job. Dependability includes honesty, reliability, and punctuality. These types of workers are valued by employers. Workers that aren't dependable can be expensive and result in a loss of resources. These are the attributes that are necessary for work ethic and each one is just as important as the other.

I learned that there are some areas that I need to improve on in my work ethic. Usually I'd like to think I'm a good worker but I still have my struggles. One of them being procrastination. I always wait until the last minute which can cost me missed opportunities as well as poorer results. I have to carry theses things over to my mentorship and really work on my punctuality, dependability, and initiative in some ways. When working with physical therapists I need to be respectful, be patient, and be willing to be there when they need me. I expect to further my experience in this career field as I work on these qualities of work ethic.
