Individual Reflection
A stakeholder would be any person, group, or organization will or will have influences in any actions that you take to achieve your goals. Stakeholders can be in or out of the workplace, have positive or negative interest, some may have concerns about your actions and these concerns will have a negative impact, and others who receive a profit from your actions will have a positive effect on you succeeding. (Applegate 2008) In order to get the stakeholders interest, you must devise an action plan that will interest the stakeholders. To put the plan into action, you have to decide who will be involved, what communication should be drafted, what can happen to help or hinder the plan. (Applegate 2008)
The strengths that you want in a team are persistent, determined, assertive, and action oriented. What you do not want is a team that is too pushy, expressing frustration readily when others do not move quickly enough for their liking, overselling their ideas, and you definitely do not want anyone who is not going to contribute.

What is important to my husband is that I pursue my goals in my education. He is the one who pushed me to go back to school; he wants me to get my degrees so I can open a business. I have always wanted my own little office or to work for a firm. I would just like to use my knowledge to help people.
What is has been important to my aunt is that I am doing things for myself. She has watched me overcome and always many obstacles in my life, and always tried to do the right thing. She has faith in all that I do and stands behind any decisions I would make.
As with any plan, there are risks or obstacles, as I would like to call them. I have already overcome one obstacle a few months ago. I found out this past January that I have lost the vision in my left eye and that my right eye sees
