First review

So this Friday I got my first review from Target. Every executive I worked with or trained me got to review me. We also got to review each other in our learning group and all the other executives. The other executives said I was good at driving change, meaning I can get people do what I need them to. They also said I am good at thinking critically and building trust. All of which are really good. The other people in my group said similar things. The one recurring comment my group gave me was that I am "all knowing" (and not in a bad way). They felt that I was someone that if they had a question they could come to me and I would know the answer. I thought that was pretty good, because that is something I strive to do is know as much as I can. That is something I did at the hotel, I could answer almost any question. They also said I was great at articulating a message. Most of my review was positive. There was one thing that wasn't.

Someone in my group said that I "need to learn to value diversity". That one pissed me off! My group was filled with middle aged white males or females. I was the youngest and the only one that was different. Now I never came out and said I'm a homo, but it is clear sometimes. There was another gay guy I met and he and I got a long great and talked a lot. I honestly don't know how they could think that I don't value diversity. I am the only diverse one in the group. So I think they were completely off with that comment. I also was told that I need become comfortable with ambiguity. Which I completely disagree with, if something is unclear I want to look at it and find out as much as possible. They are right, I am not ok with things that are unclear and never will be.

For the most part the review was very positive, it was that one comment that I was confused with. But like someone told me that if that is the impression I give off then clearly I need to work on something. And they are probably right, I do not value mormons I guess that could be why I don't value diversity.
