The choice between life and death seems like it should be a simple answer right? Well, not in this society we were placed in, it has come down to eight people left on earth and one plane but the catch is only four people can go on the plan. How do you decide who has more value or who would be better suited for this new world. Well we as a group had to plea our cases on why we should be going onto this plane. We as a group applied the three concepts of fight, flight and tend-and-befriend to determine who would be moving onto a new life on a remote island. Group Behaviors and Discussion When we first started in our groups we had three guys and five girls, and right off the bat someone had suggested that two of the guys should go and two of …show more content…
Them giving up is an example of the flight method I had mentioned earlier which is when someone just withdraws or gives up before even trying. Even one of the members mentioned they would just go to chipotle as a final meal in the airport and be completely okay with that as there ending since they couldn't get on the plane. Now back to the final five, we've narrowed it down to two guys who will be moving on(me being one of them) and three girls. The girls would not give up they had so much fight in them, fight is one of the concepts and that is when someone becomes competitive and very aggressive. They all were talking about there skills and what they can bring to the group. What it ultimately came down to was that the two girls that moved on had different skills, one brought outdoor skills such as bow and arrow skills, fishing and even first aid training. While the other girl brought a different set where she knew how to make a fire, knew CPR, first aid and much more. So after using the concepts given we finally figured out what four people would be going, it was not an easy choice but it had to be done. Some people were upset and some were just fine with not going but a question arose that now only two people could go, how would that of went differently. Personally I think that just comes down to the genetics and who we think are the best two people to move on and build this world back up. My Behavior and Talk During Activity Through out
The Sierra Academy serves student with learning disabilities. They have variety of programs which include speech therapy, occupational therapy, small class sizes, counselling services, small group instruction/specialized programming. I was privileged to observe and interview Maria Gonzalez’s class for six hours. I had a good experience with the class and felt that I should share my story. Eighty percent of the class needs where mild to moderate. Although, I saw a couple of those who could function pretty well on their own with little or no supervision.

As part of the two person executive secretariat team at Embassy Baghdad, I helped support our primary Mission Iraq goals: protecting America’s security by countering violence and instability, and renewing America’s competitive economic advantage through bilateral relationships and economic reform. Our team not only directly supported the Ambassador’s and the Deputy Chief of Mission's (DCM) engagement with the highest-level Iraqi interlocutors, but also supported working level meetings and reporting from all sections at Post, including USAID and the Departments of Defense, Treasury, and Justice. In the six months since my arrival, our team has processed more than 1,000 papers. Our work, almost always completed on the day of receipt, includes editing for grammar and content, checking and securing clearances, and drafting supplementary

The group five project, ‘Solar Energy Pamphlet,’ is progressing as expected. As I am sure you remember Micheal, Ben, Teresa, and I were assigned a group project to repurpose one of our projects from unit two. We chose to use Michael’s project on solar energy and create a pamphlet that will provide information to individuals and business involved in building construction and remodeling.
What would you do if one of you team members isn’t finished with something and you don’t get a team point?
What occupation did your group session address? What was the goal for group session? The occupation addressed was meal prep/setup and leisure participation. The goal was to utilize their long term memory and motivate them to recall positive, emotional memories.
We all remember those boring days back in middle school where the worksheets were given out everyday, and you were just waiting for that beautiful sound of the two words “group work” to run through your ears and brighten up your day. It just made you want to jump out of your seat and start working because of how excited you were. In my opinion, group work is something that I must strongly agree with because it helps with so many things including teaching different real life skills, lets you have fun, and helps you meet new
Outside of the study of leadership, the words “group” and “team” are often synonymous. When applying these words to the study of Full Range Leadership Development, these two words fall on opposite ends of the synergy spectrum. Sosik and Jung (2010) explain that in a group, individuals are focused in a self-centered manner; the completion of their work is focused heavily on the good of the individual and there is not much consideration for how their work impacts the overall performance of the group (p. 305).
In the current scenario, we are now a focused group of 60 members being lead by a very effective and efficient team leader. Our team leader is more of an authoritative team leader who gives an equal dose of control with effective and efficient interpersonal warmth. The members are always very attentive towards their team leader. They follow the instructions with finesse and complete the work within stipulated time and with utmost efficiency. It may be said that together the team works as a team when it comes to the execution of assigned work done.
Tell us about the most successful group project you have ever been a part of
Hands shaking, eyes rolling, flipping through the syllabus, I prepared myself for the group Organized Act of Kindness project. Group projects have always been dreadful for me; in high school, I was almost always the sole effort within the group. Unfortunately, due to my negative past experiences, I had a relatively negative fixed mindset going into the OAK project. Luckily, the other members of my OAK group were productive, friendly, and helpful; their attitudes and efforts helped me change my mind about group projects. By agreeing that we were all going to complete certain tasks and put in a certain amount of effort, we created a productive work environment in which we knew that no single person would be left to do the heavy lifting. Despite some bumps in the road along the way, our OAK project was ultimately a success and left us feeling positive and much closer as friends. Learning about group dynamics in class has opened my eyes and allowed me to realize that the members control how the group functions. My newfound understanding of group dynamics has translated to other aspects of my life, as I now see my role in group efforts in everything that I do.
I attended the University of Pittsburgh Student Government Board (SGB) meeting on November 10, 2015, to see first-hand how task oriented groups function. There was a presentation after the SGB meeting about the University Strategic Plan, soliciting suggestions for the implementation phase of the plan.
This EER period is out of the normal cycle due to my crossing the threshold for Tenure. I am truly excited that the Department is reviewing me for this honor. Mission Sierra Leone has given me the tools that I will need to succeed in the Service and I am grateful to both the Department and the Mission for the opportunity to begin here. During this abbreviated cycle, my team and I have worked very hard on many challenging projects over an unprecedented transfer season that exchanged 80% of the Department of State (DOS) personnel at post. To facilitate this season my team and I planned far in advance and were able to not only make smooth transitions but also make significant upgrades to our infrastructure with minimal disruption to customers.
That is very interesting information regarding AMA’s stance on prior authorizations. My health plan recently implemented that a prior authorization is required, we were one of last health plans to put this in place. Yes, one reason is to reduce over utilization of services, it is also performed for the safety of our members (the patient), and also to help reduce the risk of the member or patient being stuck with a large bill due to the fact that the service may be investigative or not medically necessary. I am sure this process is burdensome to physician’s office and I am sure they have had to work out a new process to reduce any bottlenecks and ineffeciencies. I found reading the AMA prior authorization toolkit interesting, they
