Reflective Statement Of Management Work

Similar to Tuckman’s five stages of group development is Corey and Corey, they claim that the first stage; Pregroup is “setting expectations, establishing group rules and procedures, role preparation and skills building” (Corey, Corey, Corey 2010 p123). The group did well in this stage, as the group was given a very clear aim, we discussed each members skill sets and while preparing a group contract with our aims objectives and rules. A group contract is a very useful facilitation tool as it sets out very clear guidelines for the group and defines what is acceptable and unacceptable behaviour for the group members (Tuckman 1965). The group members were able to gain clarity from the group contract, allowing them to identify the norms and boundaries of the group. For example our group decided that if a member were for any reason not be able to attend a meeting they would have to let the team know in advance, if this did happen the rest of the team would relay the information via email to the missing group member.

Overall, this group project went very well and was completed on time due to the fact there everyone including myself assigned ourselves with a task role, relational role and from the start had individual roles present such as leader, compromiser, and gatekeepers in the group that made it

My past place of employment had a high level of excellence and a high level of trust. I was employed at this facility for 11 wonderful years. The upper management was involved with all of the employees and remained available for employees for with any concerns and they had encouraged communication. A new manager was hired on my unit and she had earned the trust of the staff rather quickly. Trust was obtained by working alongside the staff, assisting with tasks, and maintaining effective communication. The manager’s expectations were clearly identified and ideas provided by the staff were valued. Although meetings were held in a professional manner, nurses felt they were able to discuss concerns and feelings, freely. When managers openly

After working in this position for a while working in groups and introducing new group members is a key ingredient in building teams and relationships. In groups and teams, relationships are the feelings, roles, norms, statuses, and trust that both affect. They reflect the quality of communication between a person and others. The variables that have an important effect on relationships are made with others in small groups. These are the roles a person assumes, the norms or standards, the group develops, the status differences that affect the group's productivity, the power some members have, the trust that improves

As part of my Business Innovation Development Project Unit, I had the opportunity to put myself into group with my friends or people I believed I could work well with. In the first stages of our group we all tried to get to know each other more through analysing personality and learning types’ test that we previously undertook. I realise we were going through the normal stages of the team formation in particular forming and norming (Tuckman, 1965). In my assignment group we had all Belbin team roles which helped us perform well throughout our project and also helped us to identify other team members’ behavioural strengths and weaknesses. During the initial stages of the group getting together I believed it was

When I began this course I was very nervous because I had no idea of the scope of the course. I was unfamiliar with the Canadian education system and other students. After receiving instructions from my professor, I introduced myself to the person beside me and this process helped to break the ice. I developed a good friendship with the student and this technique used by the professor helped me develop better communication and relationship skills. After few classes, I felt very comfortable and the nervousness and anxiety faded away. I learned about leadership, power relationships in the profession, personal, cultural, professional and organizational, each of which is very important in the nurse’s career. I also gained knowledge regarding client centred care.

The Accounting for Management Decision Making class has provided several concepts that have improved my ability to make decisions for my organization, a large hospital. I now have an understanding of methods to determine if a capital project is possible such as discounted cash flow, net present value, accounting rate of return, payback and internal rate of return. This course also helped me increase my knowledge of strategic planning, forecasting and budgeting. Additionally, I learned to calculate standard versus actual costs as well as opportunity cost.

After the selection of the effective team members, it is important to analyze the conditions that should be in place before the team is launched; analyze the team processes that unfold as the team begins its work; assess what should happen during the team’s launch, and

They will create a bullet point list of things that they have to do as a team in order to complete the project.

At the university I supervised between 17- 20 individuals and at the hospital I grew my team from 5 – 13 members. At Canterbury I had one direct report. I believe in setting clear expectations and goals and meeting on a regular basis with my direct reports. I don’t like to micro-manage, but will increase my involvement when the situation calls for it. As a manager, I believe my role is to help to identify and remove any challenges or obstacles that are in the way of my direct reports, so that they can best carry out their responsibilities. My duty as a supervisor is to give my team the tools and resources they need to carry out their jobs efficiently. All staff need to have clear measures of personal success, i.e., dollars raised, number of

The organization has five stages of group development. In the forming stage they have identified that there is a

As a college student, I was unware of the steps I’ve taken that could hinder or improve the growths of my management skills. The new insights gained from these assignments conducted have enlightened my understanding of myself by overseeing my management skills ability through I’ve made that place me in varieties of scenarios. The assignments have not only enlightened me, but it has provided me the advantage of being well-informed of my strengths and weaknesses. Although many of the assessments have concluded the result that I’ve expected to obtain, there were three specific exercises that have shockingly raised my level of conscious about myself that I wasn’t aware of before or that I highly disagree with.

Path Goal Theory also known as the path–goal theory of leader effectiveness or the path–goal model is a theory proposed by Martin Evans and Robert House, which is then developed by Robert House who is an
