My name is Simone Anderson and I am 26 years old from Los Angeles, CA. I am two classes away from finishing my bachelors degree in project management. I currently work in wastewater management coordinating purchases for the wastewater plant. Awastewater management purchasing position is essential for streamlining operations, managing costs, ensuring compliance, and fostering sustainable and efficient wastewater treatment processes. After finishing my project management degree, I plan on getting my PMP certification and then becoming a fully remote project manager by 2025.

This course will give me a thorough understanding of organizational analysis and strategic planning, which will greatly improve my professional capabilities. I have discovered how mission statements direct organizational operations and promote alignment with overarching objectives. My ability to evaluate an organization's opportunities, threats, weaknesses, and strengths has improved as a result of conducting SWOT analyses, which helps with strategic decision-making.

Accessing career services platforms like Handshake is a valuable step in planning my career after graduating or even while still in school. These platforms typically offer features such as job postings, internships, networking opportunities, and resources to assist with career exploration.
