Fall 2013 San Miguel Program Goals

Fall 2013 Semester: San Miguel Programs

Semester Goals:

1. To turn ideas into action. Finishing the year with the same goal I started with: following through, seeing projects through from start to finish, making the impossible possible.
2. To listen. Working in San Miguel, whether on Community Outreach, Education, or Health & Wellness projects, you are working with people who have their own perspectives, backgrounds, cultures, beliefs, and dreams. Listen more- it will let you learn more, which gives you the ability to do more, and do better.
3. To grow. To increase the quality of education in our programs, to increase the quality of our projects, and to expand personal and professional skill sets for both the students and myself.

Techniques:

• Communication
• Organization
• Follow-through
• Work Ethic
• Positivity
