Time to exhale

We did it! Our intern group project has been completed. Yesterday morning, we presented our crisis management plan to a room full of the company's top executive. Our initial nerves gave way as soon as we began to present. We had practiced, practiced, and practiced which made it easy to relax and deliver our proposal. As with most topics, the more you know, the more comfortable you are talking about it. We had worked on this crises management plan for so long that we knew it inside and out. This allowed us to be loose and deliver our points effectively. More importantly this prepared us to answer the questions the executives threw our way. It could be quite intimidating to sit there and try to defend your proposal to high executives, but I think we all did such a great job preparing that when the questions came we were able to answer them with very little trouble. I was real proud of the way everyone performed.
Now all that is left to do is continue to help out with little things within my department, tie up loose ends, and put together my individual presentation. The individual presentation is on the last day of our internship. We are expected to all the interns' managers and mentors on our experience at ETC this summer. It will be fun to see what all the other interns have been up to and hear their thoughts on their experience here at ETC.
