Time flies !

I can't believe how fast time flies. Just a few weeks ago we were tossing paper at each other to learn their names - now I feel like I've known everyone in class for a while. Trusting them with leadership roles during in-class activities and group collaboration.
This past Saturday's class has been quite an interesting class. The tarp activity showed how a well acquainted group can collaborate and work together to achieve a common goal. In comparison to the paper plate activity we had in the beginning of the class, we only did the tarp activity ONCE and succeeded.
Moral of the story: Be a leader when the situation calls for one, follow the leader if he's doing a great job (your turn will come).

  1. Satya,

    Well said. Leadership by followership. Taking turn means situational leadership. One cannot be leader in all the situations and hence learning to offer followership is also part of leadership skills.
