　　(1) (What) I suggested that we set the topic to be "Sell Yourself" for the annual speech contest in our school.

　　(2) (Situation) Each year our school holds a speech contest, the topic is randomly chosen by the teachers, for example, how to protect the environment, the importance of honesty, and so on. Students are not very excited about these topics.

　　(3) (Task) I am quite interested in participating in speech contests, but I'd like them to be different, more exciting and more useful. So I decided to offer some suggestions to our school.

　　(4) (Actions)

　　i. I proposed three topics: Sell Yourself; Where I'll be in 3 Years; Be Competitive. All focus on future job hunting and career development, which I believe are attractive topics to most students.

　　ii. I surveyed other students and got the information that Sell Yourself seemed better, because it gave us a chance not only to say something, but possibly to sing and dance in addition to just speak.

　　(5) (Result) My proposal was used in the Speech Contest, which was enjoyed by the students. Over 500 students came to watch the speech contest, double the previous audience size. And the participants said the topic gave them a good opportunity to show off and become more confident.

　　(1) (What) I once solved the problem of lack of inventory in our store in an hour.

　　(2) (Situation) Four stores do the promotion at the same time and our store is one of them, the largest one. The sales assistant on the previous day forgot to report that the inventory wasn't enough and I just realized it when I arrived in the morning.

　　(3) (Key Words: my assessment of the situation) The four promoting stores were not very far from each other, and they opened at different times. It was possible to fetch some stock from another store and make up for it later.

　　(4) (Key Words: the priorities) To satisfy the stocking demand of the store which had the largest number of customers.
