Climbing Everest was hard even on a Simulation. Unfortunately, I failed to reach the summit but on the bright side 3 of the 4 members of my team managed to reach the summit. In the Everest simulation, I played the role of the Environmentalist and got and individual score of 4/7. My whole team got a score of 38/54, which was a respectable 70% of goals achieved. I felt our simulation went well but there was a couple of aspects that held us back from getting a better score. I will be critically analysing myself and the teams experience in the Everest simulation by applying an evidence based management approach In our simulation, we did not implement a shared leadership or any leadership style for that matter. Shared leadership is when responsibilities …show more content…
This study explored team processes in self managed teams and different leadership styles in each team. Teams that practiced shared leadership, were more motivated, confident and satisfied.

In conclusion, this study has shown us the many benefits of a team that practices shared …show more content…
