One of the competencies developed in my Business 201 Class was
teamwork. Within this class we spent the majority of our time working
as part of a team. This allowed me to develop skills working with
others to achieve a common objective.
More specifically, this class had us develop a business and complete a
thorough business plan. We worked in small groups, and were required to
complete this project in a timely and professional manner. Our group
also learned to collaborate effectively as a team, openly contribute
ideas, solve problems, and accept responsibilities, all to achieve a
common goal. All group members were given leadership
opportunities and utilized these to improve and lead different aspects
of the business plan. As a group we were able to develope a work ethic and team mentality to achieve the desired objective, in my mind these are some of the best experiences a student can have because the ability to work with others is an invaluable skill.
