Introduction The purpose of this report is to reflect on my experiences of working in a team both clinically and academically. By reflection, I aim to learn new skills from these experiences and apply them in future team working scenarios. Throughout this reflective report I intend to use the Gibbs reflection model (Appendix 2) to give structure to it. I will be using my Emotional Intelligence (EI) score as a tool to understand why I felt and behaved in my clinical and academic team scenarios (Appendix 1). There are many definitions of EI one of which is the ability to recognise, use, understand, and manage emotions effectively, both internally and in others. It is the set of problem – solving abilities that we use to resolve emotional challenges …show more content…

In my clinical experiences, I learned how effective teamwork minimised risk of harm to the radiographers and the patient. Borrill C., et al (2007) discusses how healthcare teams that function effectively provide higher levels of innovation and quality of patient care. In relation to the presentation, I realised that it took several group discussions before we started working as an effective team. Also the team had been constructed by the lecturer and not by us. This is similar to the workplace, as radiographers do not choose who they work with. There has to be some recognition ‘that teams evolve over time and do not just occur overnight because professions are grouped together due to ward or departmental organisations’ Tierney and Vallis, (1999 …show more content…

For example an individual within the presentation group gave feedback on the slides that I had produced, and suggested ways I could improve it. I didn’t take offense by this as I knew it was to the benefit of the team. We received good feedback overall and I even received individual praise. However a few obvious flaws were pointed out; such as no symptoms of hypoglycaemia and dubious resources used. I accepted all criticism as it was constructive. The feedback also helped identify areas to improve on which will help me in future team working situations. Upon reflection, there was no definitive leader in the team; I believe this was a major factor in us not achieving some of the learning outcomes of the task. Leadership can be defined as ‘a power and process which is effective in motivating a certain group or society to act at a certain direction’ Unsar, S. (2014: pp3). The leader of the group could have reviewed the presentation as a whole and given direction. This would have ensured that each individual had achieved the aims of their assigned

According to Caruso et al. ’s “Special Issue on Emotional Intelligence,” EI is the capability to distinguish another’s emotions and react to them effectively (2016). When Testikov abruptly throws Elaine’s electronic organizer out of the limousine window, she is calm under pressure, showing that she possesses high emotional intelligence (EI). Therefore, instead of reacting to the aggressive action with more aggression, she develops a plan to repay the innocent victim for her incidental medical expenses.

Interprofessional teamwork has become essential part of health care system in order to improve the quality of care. Many researches has suggested that collaboration of health care workers has impacted the patient care outcome in a positive way, as well as assisting to avoid errors by, “watching each other’s backs” (Cherry & Jacob, p 398). Furthermore, “Important indicators of safety, patient care, and environment of care, such as complications and error rate, length of hospital stay, conflict among caregivers, staff turnover, and mortality rate, have all been shown to decrease in collaborative care environment” (Green & Johnson, 2015, p. 2) In recent years, nurses are in front line in running health care in USA. According to Lomax and White (2015), the Institute of Medicine (IOM) published the report stating that in order to provide safe and high-quality care, it is crucial for nursed to collaborate with other health care professionals (para. 6).

That was something I wanted to change because in order to look at the bigger picture, the smaller pieces must also be recognized. It was my first time as a leader as well as being in charge of 130 members. I tried to work with and gave my attention to each individual because they do matter, which helped the group progressed so much. The responsibilities continue to increase as the pressures of being a perfect leader begin to evolve. I was worried that people were criticizing me or blaming me for any small mistakes that I might make, but I realized that I was still a member of the band who was given a leadership position to inspire people with encouragements and positivity.

The Process of Reflection The process of reflection is central to clinical supervision. Launer (2003) describes external and internal factors in supervision whereby clinical practice and sharing skills are external and reflection is an ‘internal conversation.’ Brunero & Stein-Parbury (2008) discussed the effects of clinical supervision in nursing staff and argued that self-reflection generates a sense of self-awareness and knowledge to the individual. Supervisees or students may be asked what happened during a clinical event, how they felt, the implications of their actions and what they would do differently if faced with the same situation.

Being a good nursing leader is so much more than understanding work flows, budgets and patient satisfaction. One strategy for leaders to improve their ability is to learn about and improve their own emotional intelligence. Emotional Intelligence Emotional Intelligence refers to the ability of a person to recognize, understand and master their own emotions as well as those of others (Codier & Codier, 2017). For anyone in a leadership position, charge nurse, nurse manager or director, being able to recognize and manage emotions in themselves and others is a great advantage. Indeed, emotional intelligence is viewed as one of the best predictors of a successful leader (Codier & Codier, 2017).

Introduction: Reflection is a part of daily process of learning and thinking. As stated by Jasper, (2003), the reflection is “…the way that we learn from an experience in order to understand and develop practice”. It is useful in dealing with challenges and can be used as a tool for personal and professional development. Moreover, a convoluted process of writing experiences and learning from any event and understanding of its usefulness in future is, defined as Reflective writing. The theoretical model which is often used as a framework for reflective writing was created by Professor Graham Gibbs (1988) and is known as Gibb’s reflective cycle.

To avoid personal bias, a leader should not only rely on self-assessment. I refer to Belbin’s team role questionnaire I did in the LPDCM class, feedback from the team, and assessment result from a consultant when I worked as an HR Director, to identify my strengths and weakness. I am aware that I have high work standard, high motivation, enjoy building a partnership, driving execution and innovation to deliver my commitment. However, I should better delegate the task and not to worry too much about the outcomes/perfection, which could result in giving too much pressure to my team. Even though my CP team enjoys our group work, I may stretch them with some pressures for detail and

Blanchard et al. (2007) has suggested that the reason for this approach is that the world of business is rapidly evolving and that the work required of organisations is constantly changing and become more complex. Therefore many organisations prefer to have a team of multiple people to cope with demands of change and to support the level of knowledge required.

With this being our first college team assignment, we were all treading on unfamiliar territory.

Another dynamic is that people were easy to find out the weaknesses of the counselor. Every time we did the feedback part, people were usually pointed out the weaknesses of the counselor but rarely said somethings that counselor did well. I think it is very normal that people will emphasize the weaknesses but I think these feedbacks can make people do better so it is not a bad thing for

Kurt Lewin’s major contribution lies in the field of Group Dynamics, Field Theory and Action Research. He modelled the social change process in organisational, particularly, industrial setups. 1. Group Dynamics: - Lewin’s definition of a group is widely accepted. Here the basic line of argument is that groups come into being in a psychological sense ‘not because their members necessarily are similar to one another (although they may be); rather, a group exists when people in it realize their fate depends on the fate of the group as a whole’
