Colgan's Plan for Mod 0 - kick ass and take names.

Everyone says Turing is going to be difficult. After a few sessions of Mod 0 - I have a good feeling that it IS going to be difficult. Nothing has convinced me otherwise so far. That said, I'm going to do my best to work hard and try to follow the tenets of this gameplan to be successful, and hopefully graduate on to Mod 1!

Purpose

You will be a contributor in several paired/group project throughout your Turing career working on complex technical challenges. You may be surprised to find out that < 1% of failing projects at Turing are due solely to technical definicines - in fact, the majority of failing projects are due to intrapersonal/team issues. In order to set yourself (and your teammates) up for success, it is critical to clearly communicate and set expectations with your teammates.

1. What were your reflections from the video?
- Watching this video, it's increasingly apparent that I can do a better job of examining my own implicit biases. On a grand
social level, I try my best to be aware of the priveledges afforded to me as a Cis gendered white man. I also realize though,
that these biases can unconsciously carry over to the professional world, and perhaps I haven't given that enough consideration
in my professional career thus far. I think back to hiring, and how relatively easy I may have had it thus far in my life
AS a cis-gendered white man to be hired and brought into a workplace, compared to my peers in minority and underrepresented
groups. It's definitely a wake-up call to try to learn more, and understand how implicit biases impact the workplace, and
professional career development for various individuals and communities.
