Reflection Paper II Throughout my college experience here in the Carroll School of Management, group work and the ability to work well with others has been emphasized greatly. This makes sense, because in a professional environment, the ability to communicate, listen and contribute within a group leads to success and the achievement of goals. However, none have gone on as long as this project, making it a more realistic example of working on a team. Junior year of college is definitely a…

Presentations have never been my strong suit, whether it is talking about myself in front of a group of people to presenting a complex situation to a class. By taking this course I am hoping that I’ll be able to boost my confidence when it comes to public speaking. I have had to complete many presentation in the past but I have yet to master the ability to present well in front of large groups. The first project that we were assigned in my communication class was to get to know our classmate…

This is the ideal of an egoless team structure. In the case of Dogs Group, although the structure was egoless, certain members of the team could not agree on what roles the members should have and this led to conflicts between those members who followed the egoless team structure (exhibit designers and…

Sarah You were a little quite on Wednesday in the first part of the IQ sessions but opened up more in the second half. However on Friday your participation was more even throughout. You did very nice board work; I liked how you engaged the entire group in labeling your drawing not because you did not know but because you wanted more people to participate in the discussion.

on during the same time period remained a secret until long after the war ended. In 1989, the Berlin Wall fell, and documents began leaking out of the former communist countries. Many of there documents had never been seen before. In 1995, a large group of documents were discovered in Poland which tell a very interesting story about a fascinating object called "The Bell". This is an interesting story that has come out. It's one of those stories, incidentally that's come out since the German…

The role of a follower and the necessity of followership. The class examined in great detail, the nature of both positive and negative impact of conflict in group settings which can be…

Group Assignment Reflection Paper In my astronomy lab, we were assigned a group assignment on the lunar phases. My group was group number three and contained a total of six members in it, including: Molli Weeks, Hope Wallace, Avery Albas, Aubrecia Barree, Detericka Chambers and myself. This assignment required us to collaborate thoughts as well as opinions so that we could effectively work together in a group setting. Our group equally contributed both a fair amount of knowledge and effort in…

Our group has had a rough start and a rough finish for project 1. The group consisted of eight people and one would think with eight people the work would not have been so tough. However, we did work well together when we did work, we collaborated and agreed on ideas, and we worked together to achieve some sort of product. Unfortunately along the way there were communication issues, and confusion. In the beginning, it was bright and people seemed to want to do great work for the project. That…

The Poi Pounder Poi pounders are a powerful tool used in my Hawaiian culture . Poi pounders start off as an ordinary rock, like how I was born at birth. An ordinary child , The pedestal which is the bottom of the pounder , represents what holds me and my knowledge.

Starting from the bottom of the poi pounder , the pedestal represents my knowledge and what holds me . In my culture we…

we soon found our selves segregated. Some of us stood on small blankets; others back at our seats since we had been “killed off”. Depending on our roles, we experienced different things as we went throughout history. After the activity we had a group discussion about some of…
