When I started this journey I was not sure into where I was embarking. But I have to say that I really enjoyed the class. I like the format and the discussions and reading from Bennis. I wanted to take the course seriously, so, reading each chapter I forced myself into thinking deeper about the material discussed and take others into perspective. That was the most beneficial part of the learning for me. I also realized that leadership is really about a situation and that you can be a leader in different ways. Therefore, it is perfectly okay to take on a leadership role sometimes and to let a more capable person take control while still keeping things into perspective.
Kinderkareonline.co which started as babycareonline.com is really Sandra’s baby. From the beginning, I was very enthusiastic about the project and immediately embarked on board. Sandra being an expert in children care, took the lead and was always available to discuss the project and help understand a concept whenever necessary.
The leadership role I took on this project was to make sure we stayed on top of things where IVE was concerned. I reached out to different mentors and researched the subject on different facades. I also kept track of what we were doing and made some recommendations. There was a good communication channel within our team and each individual was able to expose their ideas and opinions to take the project where it needed.
This was a great experience and I really appreciate to meet the people in the class. Each student has such strong and unique personality, yet we came as a group and were able to respectfully bring something to the table that was beneficial without clashing. That is to be respected!
