What kinds of jobs are needed in an organization? How has specialization of labor, or division of labor, been implemented in an organization in which you have worked (or researched)? How are departments organized? Do you perceive these groupings to be effective? Why or why not?

Career Path Presentation Based on the work you have readings and discussions for this course, identify someone whose career path interests you. It can be someone you know or it can be someone about whom you have heard.   Research the person’s career path, using the following questions as a guide: What is the person’s current (or most recent) position? Where do they work now (or did they work)? How did they get interested in their field? What types of things did they learn about? Their learning could be formal, through life experience or a combination What types of jobs or positions have they held? What advice do they give to those starting out in their field? What of their experiences apply to how you might approach your own professional future? Choose the research methods that make sense to learn about the person you chose.
