9.3 Reflection Blog: Final Post

Throughout this course, I’ve been able to reflect on my personal ethical framework and how there are alignments and gaps between the organizations I associate with. I’ve examined my company’s ethics, the organizations where I volunteer, and even the politicians I support. T his has allowed me to understand where I stand within ethical principles. A recurring theme I’ve found in my ethical leadership framework is how I highly consider the common good and include others. This is also reflected in how cohesive an organization’s ethical framework functions.

This realization allows me to combine my personal value of inclusivity and the ethical practices of teamwork.   Some changes I’d like to make to my own ethical framework is my loyalty to companies and politicians.

Jacqueline Arevalo - Introduction

Image
  Hello, my name is Jacqueline Arevalo, but I go by Jackie. I am a proud dog owner of two wonderful pups named Bubbles and Charlie. Bubbles is a 10-year-old Malti-poo and Charlie is a 5-year-old French bulldog. During my free time I enjoy traveling, going on walks, trying different coffeeshops, reading, going to the beach, and visiting family. I am currently not involved in any activities at Embry-Riddle; however, I am employed by ERAU worldwide. My career goal is to work with a special education department to identify or design quality educational programs that incorporate various learning modalities and techniques. My previous experience with an assessment team allowed me to recognize the significant gap in services and the challenges families face in finding appropriate support and getting it approved by their insurance. Unfortunately, special education services have increasingly prioritized cost-effectiveness over being child focused. Through this course, I aim to deepen my und...

I currently work at General Dynamics Mission Systems as an engineer. I am about halfway through a three-year rotational program in our manufacturing department and I have enjoyed it so far.

Vincent Stack Introduction

 Hello all, My name is Vincent Stack. I go by Vinny for short, and this is my ninth class in the Leadership program, almost done! I am a husband to an amazing wife, Emily, and a father of one rambunctious three-and-a-half-year-old daughter. As for career stuff, I graduated from Arizona State University in 2015 and joined the Air Force through Officer Training School (OTS) shortly after. I spent my first five years in the Air Force as a Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) pilot, and in 2021, I made a career change by going through Pilot Training to become an F-15E Pilot. I recently finished the myriad of training required to do that and just moved from North Carolina to Europe for an overseas assignment. My big career goals mainly involve continuing to better myself and others around me, and I hope to do that with help from these courses.  From this class, I hope to learn new perspectives from diverse sets of viewpoints and gain a more in-depth understanding of the role of ethics i...
