Project G:
Competency 5: Name: Mira Aryuni
Demonstrate a positive attitude.
(Analyze industry standards of personal dependability, accountability
and integrity. List evidence of meeting
industry standards.)
The article, “What Do Employers Really Want? Top Skills and Values Employers Seek from
Job-Seekers,” by Randal S. Hansen, Ph.D. and Katharine Hansen, Ph.D. includes employee standards of personal dependability,
accountability and integrity.
The article
continues to explain that a positive attitude can be evidenced as follows:
Dependability/ Reliability/ Accountability. There is no question that all employers
desire employees who will arrive to work every day—on time—and ready to work,
and who will take responsibility for their actions. Employers seek employees who love what they
do and will keep at it until they solve the problem or get the job done. This skill is further described as a
dependable, responsible contributor with commitment to excellence and success.
Integrity/Honesty/Morality. Employers probably respect personal integrity
more than any other value, especially in light of the many recent corporate
scandals. This skill is further described
as a seasoned professional whose honesty and integrity provide for effective
leadership and optimal business relationships.
Using the table below, identify your positive attitude attributes by
providing true examples of each. If you
need more room to write, please attach a supplemental page.

Integrity
When I was working
in Indonesia (2016), I managed donation project for small home industry from
government. It could be money or things for support their business. So, I was
the person who proposed the group to receive the donation. One of my superior
persuaded me to proposed one group that he knew (relative). At that time, I
had my own choice. I did check the group that he mentioned. I found that my
own choice was more deserved for the donation than another group instead. So,
I denied to proposed the group that he mentioned.

Accountability
I have another little
brother in my hometown. He graduated senior high school in 2016. He did not
want to continue study because he thought just wastes a time. He wanted to be
a police officer so he followed the selection but he did not pass it. My mother asked him to continue study first
but he denied. So, he spent one year with nothing. As a sister, I tried to
give him picture about the benefit to continue study. I’ve talk with him as a
friend and try to understand his mind. Actually, he was a hard person. I
talked to him that he still can follow the selection after he finished study.
His degree will give more opportunity and better position. I persuade him not
in one time but I did many times slowly. Finally, he agreed to continue study.
He enrolled in one of university in 2017 with law major.

for rest. When I lay down and checked messages that I did not read yet. I
found my mom’s message that I already have time to read. It was written
“thank you” and I realized about the order. So, I got up and went to buy the

With Friends
|
Dependability
I was being able to
motivate my friends. When I’m studying in US, my friends always ask for my
advice or just be their listeners. We do video call to keep communication. In
last year, my two friends did not get job yet. They felt pressure come toward
them. They were hopeless. I motivated them to not give up and keep fighting.
I said the failure is part of process. I boosted their power and assure that
they can make it. Then they feel more energetic. Good news, my two friends
finally get their jobs and I am happy for them.

Accountability
In winter break
2017, My 3 Indonesian-friend had a conflict. The conflict was about
misunderstanding. So, I was being mediator for them. I heard from A side and
understand the problem and his point of view. Then I also heard from B side
about their point of view. The problem due to lack of communication. So, I’ve
tried to explain to both side what was the cause and made it clear. I’ve
tried to make their relation better with gave good compliment to them. I made
their emotion calm down and set for chilling together. In the end, they laughed
together.

My friend in
Indonesia asked me to help translating her document to English in last
November. I said I will try because I’ve became busy of assignment nowadays.
I was afraid I can’t make it. She will have open trial for her bachelor so
she need to complete the document in 5 days. 3 days passed and I still could
not make it. In 4th day, I woke up in midnight and remember about
her. I can understand her position. So, I did translating her document because
I if I didn’t make it I will feel bad because I cannot help her. I did hers
than mine in first place.
