Student’s Last Name2IntroductionThis paper intends to discuss some of the problems I have had in identifying my flaws when it comes to my professional life, and how that has negatively impacted the growth of my career. Most of the problems portrayed by employees at their workplace also reflect in their personal lives (Nicholls 2014, pp. 34). Therefore, addressing some of the weaknesses, I have at the office will also help in improving my life outside the office. Part of working harmoniously with the colleagues or serving the clients to their satisfaction is being able to recognize my faults and accepting correction whenever I go wrong. In this paper, I will come up with a SMART strategy to aid me in dealing with my weaknesses to improve my performance as a secretary. Analysis of My weaknessesDuring the summer break, I got an opportunity to intern as a secretary in a law firm at Mumbai. I handled many clients each day and as the days passed the stress built up. Most of the clients got on my nerves, and I ended up getting angry very fast. The first weakness I recognized was the fact that I had a short temper. I would constantly yell at the stubborn clients or just leave them unattended. The manager frequently called me into the office and warned me against the behavior saying it is rude and by doing that I risked the success of the firm. The second weakness I had was that of favoritism. My colleagues reminded me that all the clients are equal and none of them should get better service than the other. These two weaknesses cost me dearly since when the manager wanted to select interns to return to the firm next summer my name was not on the list. Even when it came to retreats and attending workshops, I was never chosen to represent the organization.Johari Window
