As a young child, I witnessed my father struggle with addiction. After my parents divorced and we were removed from the environment I always knew I would work with that population in life, but I did not know in what kind of sense, whether it was legal or mental health. I was passionate for that population because it was close and dear to my heart. I have always had the mentality that if I could help or save one person than everything I ever worked to that point has been worth it. I wanted to give back to society as they did with helping my fad recover and lead a healthy and abstinent life before passing away.…

But employers need to think carefully about what to communicate. Show respect for your employees by not covering up bad news or giving it a positive spin, as most people will be able to see straight through it. Employees will not be able to help their company to embrace change if they are not made aware of the situation, or the chosen course of action. A manager must be able to tell their employees what is expected of them, sympathise with their situation, and publicly recognise individual and team performances. Communicate as much as possible about as much as possible.…

Whether you are a part of a social group or on a group project for school or work everyone has the want and need to be included, when group members don’t feel like they have fully been accepted in to the group they can become withdrawn and anti-social which would lead them to not be a contributing part of the team. Having a diverse group of people on a team can help a team more effectively and efficiently reach their common goal. If everyone on the team had the exact same life experiences, was the same age and the same culture they more than likely would have the same general way to approach the group’s common goal. Having diversity on the team can help generate more ideas because everyone’s life experiences and cultural differences have helped form the way they think and the way that they solve problems. Roles, needs and diversity affect a group’s teamwork immensely because if members aren’t performing their specific goal and only focusing on a self-centered role the groups work will either multiply for the other members of the group or the group’s common goal might not be met.…

During my passed experience, i have learned and gained some strengths and weaknesses in myself. I learned that if i am more confident in myself, I can speak up for myself and i don’t always have to act shy shy everyone I meet. One of my strength during teamwork is that when I strongly agree to a topic, I am good at stating my opinion and opening up to my colleagues. I can stand up to what i agree on and speak my voice out. But, in the other hand, if i am confused at what the subject is or if I haven’t reviewed my material, I tend to stand back and just listen.…
In order to model the way and get my team to achieve a goal or purpose that they will not be able to reach on their own, I will first need to establish my goals as a leader and the ultimate vision that I have for my team. A team is only as strong as its leader, and in order for my team to be successful, I would have to set the example. I believe that a team is better and more effective when the leader is able to incorporate other team members ideas and values. I think that a team leader is more than just a leader, but someone who can guide the team to reach the goal. By first establishing my goals and values, I can then build a team who shares the same outlook as I do.…
