Bolg #11 Trust the process

 This fast-paced blog experience is coming to an end, but maybe not for good. Not knowing what to expect in this experience, I actually had an enjoyable one. Because I wanted to look and sound like I knew what I was writing about, I took the process seriously and did research on my topics and added it to my overall opinion when I wrote the blog. This reason obviously too was so I can pass the course with a good grade, and so I can know what I was doing.
 As time went by, and I finished each blog I begain to see certain benefits from blogging that actually helped me with my learning process in my other courses. Like in my ENG 102 class, the concept of ethos, pathos, and logos were easily more noticeable in ads helping me understand their definitions better. One thing I've learned from this blogging experience is; if you don't know where to begin what you write about, just always write about what you know........... because what you know you can explain, and what you can explain, can be written down in words.

 Already knowing about something your going to write about, already helps you with half of what you could write. Does this make sense? This has helped me out in literally every aspect of this blog. One technique I used for example is; whatever I was going to write about in the blog, I would try to look at a over-all, big-picture point to my storyline of what I wanted to relay to the reader. When you think, and look at your blogs storyline, and meaning of what you want to share this way, you can come up with a overall big picture format of your story, what you want to write about, and the meaning you want to share.

Along with any evidence you have that you want to use to back up your point, opinion, and meaning; add all that to your storyline and over-all final thought and write it down. All this can be done to help you quickly to do these blogs working smart and not hard. I hope this makes sense to you because this greatly helped me every time I wrote one of these blogs and having to do 12 blogs for this course, you need to think up ways to work smart and not hard. But trust the process no matter what you do or how you do it, have fun with it, be creative but be honest, because when you do these things together; it will show in the quality and meaning of your blog. Good luck future bloggers!

Blog #9 Correlation



I have learned so much since going back to school and being enrolled at Glendale Community College(GCC). The things I have learned in my Business Management 157 classhttps://www.singlegrain.com/uncategorized/innovators-guide-expanding-marketing-strategy/
and in my English 102 class; are showing me that there are correlation's with my education and what I experience, and see in my life. As I continue to gain more knowledge and information and influence from these classes; I
see the things I'm learning begin to show itself in my everyday use in social media, when streaming Netflix or Amazon video, when I watch antana digital TV, and when I listen to my local radio stations, or Pandora on my radio in my car.
http://www.businessinsider.com/target-would-almost-rather-give-up-tv-ads-than-facebook-2014-12
In my business class I am learning how to effectively and efficiently run, guide, lead and manage people to complete a business's plan's, goal's, and objective's.

Not executing these right, is what can ultimately make or break a business, along with bad business plans, goals, and objectives, bad financial choices, and the business not making profits.

When I'm on Youtube watching videos and an ad pops up as I'm watching..... I can see the logic, and format of their ad to ensure Total Quality Management (TQM) which is focusing on the customer to continually improve product value, focusing on delivering customer value, and continually improving the system and it's processes.
I also am learning how business's and big corporations do extensive searchs internally for individuals that are both experienced and knowledgeable in managing and leading in these types of positions. These corporations are spending millions on training the right employees to give them more extensive knowledge to effectively and efficiently run these same big corporations.

While I was watching TV yesterday morning, I see commercials and how they are trying to engage the Audience by using pathos or ethos or logos. Everywhere you look every business and Corporation is using these modes for persuasion, the rhetorical appeals. I continually see all these correlations in every aspect of my life.

Blog #10 Business Management or Organizational Leadership


For many people the words Busniess Management or Organizational Leadership mean, "the overall organization and or coordination of the activities of a business in order to achieve its defined objectives." "Management consists of the interlocking functions of creating corporate policy and organizing, planning, controlling, and directing an organization's resources in order to achieve the objectives of that policy." That's what I'm learning it to be. I am currently enrolled in
Glendale Community College (GCC) to get an associates degree in Business Management/Organizational Leadership. After I receive this degree, I'm going to transfer to Arizona State University (ASU)
and go on to get a bachelors degree. I am currently in my sophomore year. The term management as defined in my business management (MGT 175) book says, "is the attainment of organizational goals in an efficient and effective manner through planning, organizing, staffing, directing, and controlling organizational resources."
 https://www.yourerc.com/blog/post/7-rising-trends-in-employee-training-and-development-in-2016.aspx, ..............for someone that doesn't understand what this means; basically it means that the manager or supervisor has the knowledge along with the skill sets to run, lead, and guide a group of individuals to finish and complete a business, organization, or corporations goals of staying in business and succeeding, https://learn.org/articles/What_Can_I_Do_with_a_Degree_in_Organizational_Management.html, this does not come easy though. For someone to be able to have the guiding, leading, teaching, showing, controlling, enforcing, and motivateing skills on a daily basis when leading employees to complete a business or corporations  objectives, goals, busniess plans, and strategies for that day and for every day to day operations; are exactly what managers and supervisors do,.......... I mean think about it............someone that oversees, controls, guides, and leads a billion-dollar Corporation(I use this type of example because of how enormous these corporations are) https://www.cnbc.com/video/2018/04/30/t-mobile-and-sprint-ceos-on-mega-merger.html obviously has to have the knowledge and skill set to be able to do so. These corporations spend millions of dollars searching internally for individuals they know have the experience and knowlage to fill the CEO position. These corporations use established firms to train these individuals in the Leadership trait theories to effectively run these same corporations. There are many different components, and I use the word components because like an engine; a business needs to efficiently and effectively run in perfect sequence to continue it's goals and objectives day to day. To effectively run a business or corporation there is much needed planning, organizing, staffing, directing, and leading employee's in the day to day goals, plans, and objectives of that business to stay successful.
There are many qualities and skills a business or corporation look for when looking for managers or supervisors called management fundamentals; having integrity, being industriousness, having the ability to get along with people, having the business knowledge, intelligence, education, and experience they need for the position, having leadership abilities when making sound or stress filled judgements or decisions, how they communicate, interact, and how flexible they are with others, their ability to plan, set, and complete the business, organization, or corporations objectives and goals.
All this is vital and crucial for these enormous corporations ; all the way down to the mom-and-pop businesses to be able to stay afloat with success and longevity. The knowledge and skill sets to be a good manager or organizational leader can be learned, and instilled in someone, and is exactly why theses corporations spend that money knowing the importance of it. To be able to manage and operate a local Target or Walmart is something I would like to do. A General Operation management salary ranges from $35k to $114k, the average being around $61k,  https://www.payscale.com/research/US/Job=General_%2F_Operations_Manager/Salary
 or even bigger like a regional manager/director, and manage a chain of Walmart's or Target's.  A Targets Executive Manager salary ranges from $45k to $145k, but the average is  $114k.
......... my dream's are big, my goal's are big, and my drive and will to make things happen are bigger!!
