Showing initiative in the workplace is a prime reason why people receive promotions, get raises, and, in the case of interns, receive offers of full-time employment. In a 2-3 page APA-style paper, address the following. Support your work as appropriate with citations and references.

●      Describe 2-3 actions that you have taken in your internship workplace that demonstrated your initiative. 

●      Have you offered to do something above and beyond your normal duties? Have you figured out a better way to do a common task? How did your supervisor or coworkers respond to your effort? 

●      If you have difficulty identifying ways in which you have shown initiative, you may instead describe the performance of a co-worker or supervisor in your workplace who is a good example of a person who shows initiative and puts forth extra effort.

●      Identify some extra ways you might do your job more efficiently. These suggestions could be tasks that require higher-level skills than your job description requires.
