Thoughts on Teamwork

by Erin Gammill

Journal Prompt

“Sunday’s activities introduced themes of teamwork - how to identify leadership, distribute roles, enact perseverance and flexibility, and employ encouragement in order to “win” no matter the circumstance. What did you learn about yourself from those exercises? Can you identify some roles that you are gifted in, when working on a team?”

My Thoughts

I think that I’m gifted in thinking practically, as well as keeping the team focused on the task at hand. Yesterday I found myself returning to instructions again and again to make sure that I was helping my team meet the expectations placed on us. I very much like to cheer my team on in moments where they have become down or gotten into their heads. I’m a pretty logistical thinker.
