Initially, I was reluctant to take on a leadership role, feeling I was inexperienced; however, it became apparent that other members felt they needed someone to take Sue’s place to complete the assessment effectively. I decided to delegate certain tasks to each member, trying to consider each individual’s strengths and abilities; however, I took a lot of the responsibilities on myself. It was difficult to oversee the rest of the group whilst completing my own tasks. As a result I was unable to manage the time effectively; subsequently we were in danger of not finishing within the time constraints. It was at this point that the group seemed to pull together
Now that I am doing a vocational course, I feel as if school didn’t prepare me for this new journey, I didn’t have the skills to do thorough research which is needed in BTEC Health and Social care, everything is coursework based as opposed to the previously examination based courses I was studying; this suddenly made me feel as though I wasn’t taking in information very well. I was stuck in revision mode and having to remember things to implement them in exams, only this time there were no exams so I quickly adopted a lazy attitude in the first year of this course and reduced my work quality by thinking that I had to read the text books and write them up as scripts in my own words which was far from correct. This also caused my attendance to drop because I thought everything was so ‘easy’ which had its own consequences; I missed a lot of valuable information given in classes that would mean I would actually learn new things. I started panicking and started to attend again; being patient with myself so as to learn new skills and it did pay off in the end because I actually started to understand how to execute my assignments properly. This was purely because of my own commitment and drives to stick to something and learn contrary to implementing my previous experiences of
I wasn’t going to write at all but after seeing my therapist today I reconsidered. The statement of not really knowing me, of talking to me sporadically and seeing me even less was a shock. It didn’t bring anger or sadness just simply shock. I haven’t reviewed our emails anymore, tried to analyze them or anything like that because I just didn’t see the point. I felt so much anger from you and I couldn’t understand why.
The team completed the assignment without her but did not submit it. The team deliberated pulling her weight in the group and we went to the team charter to see what we should do. As the team charter states that it is majority rules in a situation like this. We took a from the team. Nothing was responded.
Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking I did not have a lot of faith in this book in the beginning. The title seemed to make no sense and it being a summer reading book, I thought it would be no good. As I went on to read the book I was proven wrong in my original assumption. It has come to my knowledge that we have two different ways of thought process, and one of these processes we cannot control. The idea wasn’t clear to me at first.
The reason might be using complicated words that people have never heard. - Some of the people might not understand the presentation, because I was not using different ways of speaking. In presentation there might be some communication problems. For example if I have something that I want talk about in my slide, but I forget what I want to say, my presentation will be not good and the audience
When i started school i was acting up and never wanted to do any work or homework and my grandmother had to come to the school everyday. I never really cared about reading and writing because i wasn't really good at it, so i never really worked on reading and writing. My grandmother signed me up to a online program called Hooked on Phonics to help me read and write, but i never paid attention to it and skipped all the lesson because it was boring. When i was young i felt like i was on my own because my mother was away and my father was somewhere and my grandmother had all her grandchildren she took care of, so nobody took the time to teach me how to read and write. I felt like i didn't need to learn how to read and write because nobody told me or showed me how important reading and write and learn how to articulate.
Just talking to your team on a daily basically makes all the difference, the team feel wanted and needed. There need that feel of importance and that you as a person will listen and talk. It will make them feel better about coming to work. There may have difficulty in communicating but know that you will take the time to do your best to understand and solve the problem not matter how small. Whether it’s a command or just saying ‘how’s things with you’ to a team member makes all the importance of further communication.
Only a handful of regional managers responded and was happy to cooperate. However, no notification was ever sent to Williams about local price or purchase changes. Whether or not this was resentment to the newly hired director of pricing and purchasing is not evident. Williams’ refusal to understand current company structure in part led to her failure of being able to implement any procedures. Any consideration of Langly’s suggestions may have helped
In this reflective essay I will focus on particular areas of face-to-face counselling that could often be overlooked such as body language, empathy, rapport building and questioning. These subtle skills a counsellor could use may seem insignificant, when really it can determine the difference between a helpful or a non helpful session. Before the session I was un-sure of what to expect as I had not previously received any professional counselling to my discredit. Feelings of nervousness and anxiousness came over me on the way to the session as I was unsure where to start or how in depth the session would be. I seemed to prioritise in my head what issues in my life I would focus on and I also thought about what specific questions the counsellor may ask.
