Personal Narrative: My Team Work Together

Improved Essays
Overall I think our team worked really well together but we fell through with our personal tasks. Something amazing happened in our group, we became friends! In the begging when our group met it was for mandatory reason, not to create a relationship between the members of our team. But as time went on we all started to become friends, I barley new any of the people on my team but now that we have laughed felt pressured and worked together towards a goal I feel that we have a connection. For example Parina was probably the coldest person in the group in the beginning trying to stay focused on our goal and not in enjoying the atmosphere created with our comedic group. But towards the end everything changed for our final meeting before handing …show more content…
Personally I think I could have been less of manager and more of a team mate. I really tried to make sure everyone did their work but I could have just trusted my teammates which would have probably made the quality of work even high due to the amount of self empowerment they would feel from the autonomy they would be given. One way I feel my team really worked well together was we put so much more time into our interpersonal relationships than time in doing hard focused work. In our final meeting we meet for close to 3 hours and we only did 30 minutes of quite work the rest was enjoyable stress free and democratic group work with heavy reliance on each other expertise. Overall this has been the best team experience I have ever had. I’m very proud of what we made because it’s the best presentation I have ever made in a team. I never realized how important common goals are in a group especially with so many different people. I also relized that giving people time to voice their opinion even If you don’t agree with them can really help find the best action to take for the group and create a more beneficial relationship within our

    The idea of being told that I had to work for the first time made me want to eat glass; but could it possibly have turned out for the better? In England, when you reach 10th grade you participate in a nationally accepted program called 'Work Experience'. ' Work Experience' is when you work just like you would if you were legally an adult except with this program it only lasts a week. After 2 weeks of tireless searching I landed a job at Ariya Capital; an experienced developer and investor in clean energy and infrastructure projects throughout sub-Saharan Africa. It was actually much more advanced than any job I ever thought of getting.…

    The droning sound of sharp exhales and the snapping of fists on thick cotton gis started to become something I wanted a break from, not something I wanted a break for. I started practicing kempo at the Guardian martial arts dojo when I was a child, since both my brother and my dad were also doing it, it became somewhat a family activity. After a few years, the forms and workouts that were done became dull to me, I felt that I wanted something new to do if anything at all. Thinking that it was the dull mat and lighting of the indoor dojo was the problem, I decided to shove myself at something that was outside. I ended up trying soccer, and joining a team.…

    The place where I spend my days is enclosed from the rest of the public. A place, that leaves my forehead trickling down with sweat. Where the wire fences carry windscreens, at the height of seven feet. A height that should prevent balls from escaping the cage. On the ground, lays a foundation of smooth cement colored a soft shade of red with six green rectangles reaching the length of 75ft.…

    During and after the group project I got a better understanding of NAVAL and a better understanding of my group. For example, Lexi is the leader of the group and Camille is the worker bee meaning that she is the one to go to for the information about the presentation. There were many high points in the group such as when we completed are power point early and when we researched the information. I had a blast working with them. A low point was when the video couldn’t load and we had to start from scratch again.…

    WHOOSH! That’s the sound of the opposing team scoring one of many excruciatingly painful goals. Last year my lacrosse team entered an All Star tournament in Wilmington, North Carolina unknowing the fatal consequences. Don’t get me wrong, our team was good but nowhere near All Star status and our record shows crystal clear that we were not ready for the ocean of skill but rather showed we should stick in our quiet, desolate puddle. My theory on why my team’s numb skulled coaches entered us is that most of our divisions rivals were in the tournament…

    Throughout my life, and most recently my high school years, I have had the opportunity to work in many different groups for different purposes.

I have many experiences working small groups, most notably working in an assigned group for a collaborative project. The roles I take vary, depending on the subject. When we are working on a topic that I am familiar with or I am passionate about, I usually appoint myself as a leader.…
