Economics 12 Core Competency Reflection

Collaborating

During the duration of this class their have been numerous occasions in which I have demonstrated my skills in collaboration. An example of this is during our activity about unions vs companies were I as a member of the union board had to convince the company higher ups to give better working conditions. Me and my fellow union members had to collaborate to come up with substantial points that would persuade the company to increase pay, vacation days, medical coverages, and the overall conditions. Capitalizing on our teamwork we were able to get the best deal from the companies out of all the unions. Furthermore our group was able to get not only the best out of the unions but the best we could have possible have done given the conditions that we were given. Inconclusions my active participation, open communication, and willingness to listen and contribute effectively showcased my strong ability to collaborate and work seamlessly within my union group.
