- What did you do well?
I was very curious and engaged since day one in this simulation. I enjoyed the challenge and competition amongst other teams which resulted in strong motivation to perform well.
As a team member I contributed with quality work both in terms of decision making and data evidence to back up my rationale in the simulation. I communicated well with the other VP`s to ensure synergy in the organization and mitigate unnecessary risks. Additionally, I helped out in other areas with research to aid other members in making better decisions. At times the simulation was fairly complex and assisting my team members with data analysis enabled them to become better in their respective areas.
- What lessons did you learn?
I learned that the more we worked together the better we were. When we had a common understanding of goals and our unique skills, we achieved great results. I realized that team members should be able to take part in each other's development, be eager to share expertise and be open on their own challenges. I saw …show more content…
As a team player I tend to notice that misunderstandings and conflicts arise because we are motivated by different things. Some may primarily be concerned with the results the team will achieve and is impatient to get there. Others may need to work independently for securing the team's results through careful analysis and build their self-esteem on the quality of the work. There will also be those who are best when they are part of a team that is cohesive, inclusive and flexible with each other. These different motivational drivers will also contribute to different communication and behavior. If I learn to know what drives my own and others' behavior, it may be easier to understand why we communicate better with some than with others, and how I can adapt to my colleagues in order to create motivation, understanding and to avoid pointless
