It Takes a Village! In every business, it takes more than one person to create success - whether you are talking about a berry farm, a historic theater, a popular amusement park, or an expanding coffee chain. While you watch the videos, notice how many different people work together to support and sustain these operations.

Fox Theatre

Six Flags

Now, let's put it all together by creating a presentation entitled "It Takes a Village." Your presentation could either be a word document, a digital mind map, or a slideshow, but it must include a chart and research paragraph for each company. In your presentation, you should create a visual chart or slideshow featuring each company and highlighting at least two different jobs that are needed to keep each company running. Make it clear that each company is comprised of many different positions and discuss how people with different skills and interests work together to contribute to a successful enterprise.

Finally, pick out one career from each video and do some additional research on it. Let's consult our handy reference, the Bureau of Labor Statistics' Occupational Outlook Handbook once again to find more information. This time check out the headings 'How to Become One,' 'Pay,' and 'Job Outlook' for each career you choose.

Your presentation should include the following content:

A chart/slideshow that describes each of the four companies with at least two jobs discussed in each company.
In depth research on one job per company, including:
How to Become One
Pay
Job Outlook
However you choose to arrange your presentation, make sure to show clearly that the companies you learned about rely on more than one position to keep things running smoothly.
