Strengths Finder

-

Hello everyone, welcome back! This week I took a personal strengths questionnaire to determine what my strengths are in life that will help me in my career and relationships. I just wanted to discuss a few of them below and leave this list here as a reminder of what I do great in!


I actually thought this test was quite interesting and highly accurate (well worth the $70 I spent!). I found out things about myself that I didn't know before and was reminded of what I excel at. The report gives you 34 strengths listed in order of your best to weakest. This test is great because it doesn't make you essentially feel like you're 'bad' at doing anything, but that certain strengths are utilized more than others and the themes are prevalent in your life.


The values I found most interesting were the consistency and discipline values. The description for each literally had me saying "This is an exact description of me on a daily basis!!!". I will share those descriptions for both below before ending this post. I am also linking the site below for my own sake so I don't forget where to find my results later, lol!


Consistency: Because of your strengths, you are happy to do exactly what is assigned to you, as long as you sense you are not being asked to carry more than your fair share of the workload. Checking those tasks off your list brings you much pleasure, and it helps you get along with others who notice your close attention to the work required of you.


Discipline: It’s very likely that you like to keep your environment neat and orderly. You feel most comfortable when everything has its place and everything is in its place.

Cops and Facial Recognition: A Detriment To Society?

Introduction Facial recognition is a technology that can be beneficial to various industries in certain circumstances. However, technology is only as good as the person who created it and ensures that it works properly. Facial recognition software can also have dire effects on some if given to a person with the wrong intentions. Issues with this technology can arise from user biases, the misidentification of people of color, and data inaccuracies. It also begs the question of how much data is okay to use and to what extent should we allow technology to have access to our data before it becomes a violation of privacy. Source: Guardian/Getty Images Police departments across the country have been utilizing facial recognition technology to compare suspects to images of people found across the internet and in databases. But what happens when detectives and police use facial recognition to solve a case and it results in a wrongful detainment? This is exactly what occurred when a DeKalb Count...

All roads lead to public relations...

Hello everybody, welcome back. This week we will be discussing public affairs and diplomacy. How do public relations coincide with public diplomacy? I want to start this off by being quite frank by saying I had no clue what public affairs or public diplomacy were before reading the articles for this week. In fact, I had to look up the differences online. I didn't get much of an answer from a vague Google search so I decided to differentiate these two concepts from what I understand of public relations. Public relations is seen as having an "agency role" where a person works with a firm or organization to build relationships with various publics.  Public affairs are somewhat parallel to PR in the sense that the function is the same, but the role is slightly skewed to involve disseminating propaganda and messaging to the public (citizens). This person would also typically work for a governmental body. The difference between public affairs and public diplomacy is one is focu...

Social media platforms offering Telehealth services?

New media has both positive and negative effects. More commonly, it is recognized for the multitude of negative effects that it has. In this blog post, I will be discussing some of the positive effects that new media and social media can have on society and the user. Social media has a lot of positive effects that some people don’t realize. Social media connects people from all around the world and makes it easier to connect with your family and friends. According to Pew Research Center , social media and online messaging users are more likely to interact with people who are dissimilar to them (Silver and Huang, 2019). Online platforms provide an area for people to meet from various countries and cultures. Social media also makes it easier for people to find and develop new interests. Networking platforms are built with the user in mind and connect you with niche communities that are specific to that particular interest.  One of the ways new media is changing the world for the bett...
