The Rest of Week 2

On Wednesday, I was able to have my first meeting with my immediate supervisor. At this meeting, I practiced my presentation skills through an informal presentation of several ideas I had to improve the website. Additionally, I was able to ask for additional interaction with management because it was more conducive to my necessary work environment. Furthermore, we made plans to create a survey to send out to Fantasy Track players. Upon completing the survey, my supervisor and I worked collaboratively to make improvements to the survey.

Later this week, I worked on creating an excel spreadsheet of the marks athletes need at the 2009 Outdoor Track and Field Championships to win the VISA Championship Series. This action was particularly interesting because it gave me a better understanding of how the point system works in USATF. Otherwise, my work primarily consisted of research on sponsorships and brainstorming on event activation activities.
