Life Skills
In “What Color Is Your Parachute?” (2007, now in
its 36th printing, Ten Speed Press), Richard Bolles suggests that there are
three life skills that schools should teach but don’t: (1) How to find a
job, (2) How to choose and find an
appropriate partner, husband, or wife, and (3) How to think and how to make
good decisions. Do you think the author is correct? You do NOT need to read the
book to discuss this question.

DISC Personality Profile
This week we began our self-analysis by taking the AMA DISC
Personality Survey (TM) to establish a personal baseline for our work in the
course. Your full results will be filed in the Dropbox by the end of Week 2.
See DocSharing for the report format. Please comment here on any perceptions or
conclusions you wish to share with the class at this point. What does this work
mean to you? Did you recognize the person described in the DISC results? From
your knowledge of your classmates, and what they said in class and report here
on their DISC, do you think this report is accurate?
