Throughout this project, I have further developed many leadership competencies from personal learning to adaptability. I further developed these leadership competencies through constantly seeking feedback from my teammates about what I can do better and trying to become more adaptable to other people and not just focus on myself. I believe these leadership behaviors demonstrated emotional intelligence because I was being aware that my teammates had much more to offer than just their own personal work. They helped me generate ideas for my own work and seeking feedback from them and giving feedback made our group grow into a much better team. Also, I demonstrated emotional intelligence through being in control of my emotions when there were changes and managing that ambiguity. At the beginning on the semester, I was a more laid back person who didn’t say much and just did my work on my own. Now after this project I realize how helpful it is to utilize your teammates and work together with them and ask for feedback. I think that transformation happened through becoming more comfortable with my teammates and knowing they have extremely bright ideas that can help me with my section of the project.
