As you\u2019ll see going forward my approach to leadership has remained the same but my approach to planning is what has really changed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This reflection at the end of the course has me looking at where I started and where I\u2019ve come to at the conclusion of the course. The course had a focus on leadership and project management. Through the course there was an evaluation of the different elements on how to work through and lead a group. In my initial post I discussed how I never sought power or even to move up in the organization which was something I reflected on as we progressed through this course.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I had the opportunity during this course to work with my team members on completing projects that had extremely tight timelines that were hard to meet. As the projects piled up it became clear that the person assigned the work was beginning to feel overwhelmed. That was where it become important that as a leader I took a look from the top and helped to organize the overall project. Previously this was something I had done regularly for myself but had not really worked on for a team member. The work done in this course and working as a team remotely was beneficial for me to see how one person taking control and leading can quickly take a project from unmanageable and slightly off track, back on track and running smoothly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Creating the toolkit with <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Aartsen, T., Clemens, J., Fahrenbruch, A., Sidhu, D. (2019) was an extremely beneficial part of this course. It gave me an opportunity to really look at how we plan and how we will be implementing the things we do. The plan I created is actually going to be used to implement a tool within the school while connecting with multiple stakeholders.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Aartsen, T., Clemens, J., Fahrenbruch, A., Sidhu, D.
