Team Reflection:<\/span><\/h3>\n

To discuss our rankings, our team chose to meet over Zoom. We started off by acknowledging that all of us would change at least a few of our rankings based on the readings and that many of us initially ranked these characteristics with more of a managerial perspective rather than a leadership lens. One example of this was \u201cdependable”. All the members of our team ranked this high initially, but the team\u2019s perspective changed after our readings on leadership. The team came to the conclusion that you need a dependable manager for the day-to-day operations, but for the overall leadership of an organization, dependability is less important when compared to traits that have a longer-term bigger picture outlook, such as \u201cforward-looking\u201d or \u201cinspiring\u201d.<\/p>\n

Overall, the readings helped provide background for our discussions. Additionally, the team also explored the definitions of several words in the context of leadership, which also contributed to a change in perspective. The team had a productive dialogue regarding the rankings and found that our careers and backgrounds led to some differences in outlook on some of the characteristics; three members of our group currently work in the education field, while the remaining two come from a corporate background. It was interesting to see how these different perspectives affected our rankings for certain characteristics such as \u201cambition\u201d, which was initially ranked higher from members coming from a corporate background. Regardless of our varied perspectives, we were able to have a productive discussion and come to a consensus.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
