EDLD 5399 Reflections on the Job Entry Plan

Reflections on the Job Entry Plan

I am not sure why I never have thought of doing a job entry plan. I think I have one in my mind but it is different putting it on paper. Plus, in interviews there always seems to be a question about the job I am interviewing for and a timeline. Being required to sit down and formulate a plan for my next career was insightful. Having to be so specific in the assignment was good for me because I think in such a broad sense. I am sure as I gain experience this plan will change.

EDLD 5399 Competency Review

In reviewing my internship plan and having it correlate to the competencies I feel that all I am lacking for my next career move is experience.  After reflecting on my assignments I feel that the Lamar superintendent program has truly prepared me to be a superintendent.  The assignments that have been given and the experiences I have completed in my own job have given me a solid base to build on.  I know that after a couple of more years in my current position I will have the confidence, experience, and knowledge necessary to become a superintendent.  My biggest obstacle at the moment is feeling the confidence to assume the position.  I feel this will come with time.
