Team Collaboration Report

1049 Words5 Pages

Throughout this project my teammates and I have been consistent and have worked extremely hard over these past 5 weeks. This was by far one of the best groups that I have ever been associated with. Each member contributed and had equal parts. We work as a team throughout the entire project and I believe we were the hardest working and most consistent. Throughout this narrative I will reflect on my own self-assessment, my peer evaluations, and reflection on communication and collaboration of 21st century skills. I am not one for self assessments I really hate having to state what I did correct, I am not a flashy individual that cares about me, I care about the team and individual conquest is not in my nature in the aspects of a team collaboration. …show more content…

I also would respond to my teammates post and to either agree or post other ideas. Our group would use both the collaboration Wkki, but we would use our school emails just as much if not more to spread ideas and links. The Wikki and email conversations are what helped drive our project. As stated before we also collaborated using Adobe Connect on days outside of class. When working in an online group, it can be difficult to agree all the time. There were times where I had ideas and some of them would be rejected, as a result I had to compromise in order to help the group as a whole. I originality wanted my students to work on a research paper and debate, however Rosalie felt that it was best suited for her part so I came up with another idea. Brandi originally wanted to focus on health, but as a group we decided tat agriculture fitted our needs as a whole much better, she obliged and we all got to work. It was frustrating at times, but that is part of working as a team, making sacrifices and compromises when needed is crucial in order to be successful. One aspect where our group excelled was being very respectful of one another. We were always positive and we never put anyone down, I was proud of my group for the maturity and respectfulness that we had for one another. My teammates and I truly worked together and collaborated and communicated while using 21st century skills. I had a great group and I believe each member played an integrate role in helping us

My time in 4-H, working, volunteering, and my first semester of college have provided me with leadership opportunities and experiences that were often challenging. In order to cope with these challenges, I had to develop skills that would allow me to move forward. The first of which is the ability to work well on a team. This skill is one that I’ve had to practice in many environments such as completing a group project, playing softball, working in food service, and volunteering as a camp counselor.

As with any type of group work, disagreements are likely to surface; but that’s why I have experience managing large groups of people and dealing with problems and complicated ideas.

Our group slowly started losing interest in the activity and just complained. I believe we should have been more inclusive. Our group should have taken a few minutes to discuss what we what we were doing wrong and how we can fix it. This way we could have heard everyone’s opinion and taken their ideas into account. Inclusivity could have helped our team with our communication and have us working towards the same goal.

Our group wrote up a team contract and quickly started working and researching the Canadian National Rail Co. We used Facebook group chat as our main source of communication and created a Google Docs document so each member could add or edit information written inside. We met a few times during Phase 1 and worked in Leddy Library or online. However, like many groups, we did encounter minor setbacks, for example, not everyone was able to come to meetings, and often found conflict with the allocation of time to other midterms/exams while working on this project, which led to deadlines approaching quicker than expected.

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.

Even though my CP team enjoys our group work, I may stretch them with some pressures for detail and
