GROUP WORK - SUMMATIVE 2
Group Work - Summative Response
Introduction
Working on groups assignments is challenging. It requires trusting your teammates. Trust
is the willingness of a party to be vulnerable to the actions of another party on the expectation
that they will perform a particular action important to the trustor (Satterlee, 2018, p. 5). When
groups collaborate in an online format it makes it even more difficult because of the impersonal
nature of online learning. Deadlines and due dates are coordinated via electronic means and
therefore seem detached from the group members. Constant communication is essential to
activate team members who may be less enthused to participate in the team process.
I have taken away from this group experience during this class that perseverance is
important. During the class, many life events happened to me, our classmates and team members.
This resulted in my group starting with five-member group but finishing with a two-member
team. I took away the lesson of understanding faith in God to lead us through whatever the world
wants to bring our way, even as we pray for strength for our team members to finish with the
group.
Resilient Leaders
Selflessness
Resilient leaders must be selfless in action and thought. It must not be about them in
relation to organizational management or the performance of organizational citizenship
