Core Competency Reflection

Some of the ways I work to build and maintain relationships are being respectful to everybody in the classroom, as well as when I am working with others in a group project. I include others into my group, and I make sure we all collaborate well.

One of the ways I ensure my group is clear on the common purpose is to check in regularly, and work together when things get challenging. When you are working in a group, it is important that you collaborate and communicate, rather than doing your job independently.

I appreciate feedback on my work and especially projects, but I prefer it comes in the form of positive feedback, where the person is trying to help me improve, and not make me feel bad about my work.

“When I need to work collaboratively with people I don’t know well, I…” My goal is to learn how to work collaboratively with people I don’t know well, because sometimes this could be a little bit of a struggle for me. I prefer working with people I do know, because it is more comfortable and I work better with my friends. However, I think this is a good goal for me because I will need to be able to communicate and work with other people moving forward in life.
