Shannon Marshall – a work in progress

The Executive Director that I work for thought it would be fun for each of us to come up with a personal mission statement. It was suppose to reflect on our personality and how that translates into the workplace. Well, I waited till the last minute; GOOGLED "personal mission statement" and found a pretty cool link at www.franklincovey.com that assists you with building a personal missions statement. After 20 minutes of reflection, here is what I came up with:

I will…
- be a reliable source of energy. In the home and in the workplace.
- always remember that my core values come from my mother.
- strive to be a steady person who takes time to look at all the details before moving on.
- be a dependable employee, sister, and friend to all who need my assistance.
- try to remember that the world does not revolve around Shannon.
- continue to express my individuality and celebrate my liberty.
- be a good and true companion to myself and others.
- continue to bring enthusiasm to work and home and support the ideas that are formed
around me.
- strive to always uphold my composure in all situations.
- remember it is ok to rely on the strengths of others and that it is ok
- always approach a client and my co-workers with sincerity and enthusiasm

I will be a reliable and steady source of enthusiasm and sincerity to those around me. I will celebrate the individuality of my team and be a dependable companion that they can rely on. I will remember to own my decisions and position and that it is ok to lean on the strengths of my fellow teammates.

I am a dependable companion that provides a strong, reliable, steady force backed with enthusiasm and sincerity.
