Teamwork in leadership

Leadership is teamwork. Obviously if geese can work as a team so can people. In every team someone has to take charge so the project can get accomplished. We have been working as a team to find out why people go to the school activities.

Mr. Ritchie

Our speaker yesterday was Mr. Ritchie. He talked a lot about football. I am not really into sports so the whole football parts were boring to me. But he also talked a lot about teamwork. I think that in any job there will always be teamwork. I work with a great staff over at Highland Ridge and there are some people that require 2 people to assist them, in moving, ect. So we team up so we can get the job done.

Thanksgiving a little late

So this year I am thankful for my family. They have always supported me in everything I do and I know I can always count on them. My friends, some come and some go. My pets, they are my babies. My jobs. Without them I am not really sure what I would do. I love taking care of people and making them feel better. I also love getting a paycheck every 2 weeks.

Leadership in the workplace

  Leadership is so important. Some of us use it everyday, like in the workplace. For example of my 2 jobs managers in stores are leaders, so are coordinators in nursing facilities. If no one wanted to be a manager or coordinator, then we as associates and assistants wouldn't know what we are supposed to do. They take charge and tell us what needs to get done. They help when other people are gone. They listen if someone else has an idea or something that needs to be brought up.

Group survey of school

So we have been doing this group project to see what other students think the conflicts are in our school. This really takes a team effort to do, we had to have someone make the survey, copy the surveys, pass them out, and record the data. This takes everyone in our group to do if we want to get it done on time.

Aaron Thomas

 Aaron's father Ed was once a leader, for his family, football team and also his community. After they had the tornado Ed really stepped out of his way and got others to help clean up the rubble. Now Aaron is a leader because he goes around and tells people his story. He is a leader for his family and himself. I think that what he does is very great, his brother wouldn't be able to go around and speak because he gets emotional Aaron said. I think that when Ed was shot Aaron really stepped up to help his family.

Teamwork

For a leader it is very important to have good teamworking skills. They have to be able to communicate with others and sometimes they have to take charge. They have to be able to work well with others. They can share their ideas but also have to listen to other people's ideas. When working in a team it is very very important to hear everyones idea. When a leader can work with others as a team it helps make them a good leader.
