The event I attended was the WestPACS job and internship fair that was back on October 10th. I attended this event because of all the different employers that were there. I felt this was the most useful event because their was plenty of opportunities to make connections. Having the chance to see all kinds of different employers shifted my focus more to cybersecurity as a whole rather than staying in management information systems.

Company Me Mission Statement- Enjoying my path and always working hard with the future in mind. Business Environment The industry I will be competing in is the business industry. More specifically, I would like to be in the cybersecurity aspect of the business industry. To get into this field and succeed I must continue to use strategic planning . This will allow me to plan out my steps to get into this field. Cybersecurity is a field that is needed in our country and internationally. An O*Net report gives the idea of work related activities such as analyzing data, gathering info, communicating ideas to others, and so on. This is a competitive field but it is a field that is always in need. Entrepreneurship  Being the CEO of myself I have to consider this a sole proprietorship . Some challenges of being the CEO of company me include getting myself out there and gathering connections for my field. Those are challenges because with many other things needing attention...
