Week Three has ended for BA352 and I believe I have made some progress in my leadership abilities and emotional intelligence! One of my goals was to make sure that everyone in the group is heard when we are collaborating, and I acted upon this by asking the more quiet individuals for their input.

In order to improve my skills with empathy, I also began to ask more in depth questions about what other group members had to say about our project. If I didn’t understand or agree with something that was said, I simply asked for their thought process so I could see where they were coming from.

I believe that my group is becoming more and more comfortable with everyone, and this is great because we are talking more and bouncing more ideas off of each other. I am finding it easier for us to come up with more ideas because of this.

I am very prospective of the weeks to come in this class and I look forward to learning more about myself in the process!
