Reflection July 15

Today was a very unique day. We did 2 different scenarios in small groups about the types of leaderships and different leaderships styles. From looking at this info I have a very unique leadership style. I incorporate a lot of these things and I have also taken apart in the many different types of leadership opportunities. I’m more of democratic I like having my whole team involved, but there will be times when you will assign roles and don’t care about feed back from the other teams members which is laissez faire. And also autocratic is when you have a group of people and you lead them and help them put there skills together to finish a given job. So I have been in all these situations at some point in my career, but I would rather have the whole group involved and get there input.


Also we looked at what type of leaderships have you been involved in. There was delegating which involves a leader and he has a follower who may have more leadership’s skills than him. This is hard for me I have a lot of energy and try to find a way to get myself to be involved. Also it’s not bad directing others. I have fun with it, and I’ve seen good results form it. The one situation of leadership I have seen the most is participating/ supporting and coaching. I try my best to interact with younger students so they can see the potential within them. Also some people want to do things and step up to be leaders but the need guidance and they need for someone to teach them the skills

But today was a great start for organizing our schools. We decided on what should be included in a teachers work description. We thought the teachers should offer support to the students in and outside of class, and have positive parent relationships. Also we discussed of having teachers work four class periods a day so they would be able to mentor students. Also I suggested to the group our school having seven periods and one double period. One of those seven periods is extended for science classes. Everyone in the school would take science at the same time. But were in the beginning stages but I feel my group has offered some great input for all parts of the school. One thing we need to work on is our communication. We listens to each others ideas but I need to listen harder because a lot of my group members talk really low and soft so I cut them off a lot but I think they could do a better job in speaking up and projecting there voices.
