Teamwork is an important skill in today�s workplace whether it�s virtual groups or face-to-face. This individual assignment asks the student to reflect on their Group Consulting Project experience and connect it to concepts and theories presented in the course and in their Korn-Ferry assessments. The student is asked to describe how their group/team evolved over the term of the course including: � What were the dynamics that occurred between the members and within the group? How do they compare to the textbook description of group dynamics? � What structure emerged for the group? How did the group�s process compare to the process described in the textbook? � Was there any conflict that may have arisen in the group? How was it resolved? How does this compare to the process of conflict described in the textbook? (The only conflict we had was when one of us couldn’t meet for our weekly meeting or if that person was a leader for that week and couldn’t submit the work, someone else would volunteer to be a leader instead and submit the work.) � Did the group have a leader? If so, how were they chosen? (Yes, we chose to have a rotation. One week was one person as a leader, whereas for the next week it was a different person. We took turns. Total 5 people in a group. 8 weeks course; I personally was a leader only once.) � What communication issues were encountered in the group? How were the problems resolved? (We had to submit our team assignments every Sunday before midnight, so we planned a Skype meeting every Saturday afternoon to talk about our progress and give each other feedbacks. The leader for that specific week was in charge of submitting the group assignment for that week.) � How did the student�s own Korn-Ferry assessment results play into the group project and their insights into the process? The student is then asked to connect their experience with the group and team dynamics concepts presented in the course to illustrate the relevance. The student is also asked to compare and contrast their intra-group conflict experience with techniques presented in the course. The format of the Individual Reflection Paper should be as follows: � Table of Contents � Introduction section about the topic and the student�s assigned group � Evolution of the group/team over the term � Group/team dynamics � Group structure � Intergroup/intra-group conflict � The student�s own Korn-Ferry assessment results impacting their role and behavior in the group � Peer Evaluation results impacting the student�s role and behavior in the group � Summary and �lessons-learned / take-aways� from the project experience and KFALP for the group project � Reference List (this does not include in 4 page of the content;) Here is the course book, so please you have to refer to the book!!!
