WhiteWater Shopping Centre-Newbridge

This week we went to White Water Shopping Centre in Newbridge. Here we went to the cinema for a talk about mini company. This time we weren't as lucky as to watch another Skyfall screening but we did have fun! Orla gave us a talk about the type of person you have to be in business.
              
Firstly we started the day by each managing director telling us about their product and how they have marketed it so far. The ideas some people came up with were amazing! Each idea was unique. 
              
After this Orla told us what we would have to do for the report and then we watched a video on how to be assertive. The video high lighted four different personalities clashing at work. The four personalities were 1. Aggressive 2. Passive 3. Passive-Aggressive and 4.Assertive . Sadly I cannot find the video she showed us but it was very informative and it gave me a huge insight into the personalities in business.

I learned what each personality means:
1. Aggressive- making an all-out effort to win or succeed
2.Passive- Accepting or submitting without objection or resistance
3.Passive-Aggressive- a person who seems to agree to people around them on face, but is actually responding with passive resistance.
3.Assertive-  confident and direct in claiming one's rights or putting forward one's views
