Last week's post was about what kind of teams have you been on and how is helped you be a better leader?
Over the years I have been on many different teams, weather it be sports or school clubs.
In high school I was on the golf team, even though golf is an individual sport we were still a team and we supported each other, on and off the course! As a team, we helped each other out with golf skills such a putting (which I really needed help with the most) but we also helped each other when it came to school work. We were always there for each other. I feel that this helped me be a better leader because I knew that I would always have someone backing me up.

In college, I join the SIFE (students in free enterprise) my sophomore year. I joined to get more involved with the school and business programs. I am still currently in SIFE, because as a team we are "helping out one community at a time." In SIFE we are teaching others, weather it be elementary students or the elder, about simple business principles. Being part of this team has helped me become a better leader, because I am more confident in myself and by being part of this club I feel that I have started a great networking pool, which will hopefully become useful in the near future.

This week's posting-

I believe that if you have a goal about anything and you are serious about it, that makes you passionate which will eventually help you accomplish your goal. I believe that you can do anything you set your mind to! As a team, if one person is passionate about a goal and they are willing to show others why, then hopefully the others will become passionate about it as well. Accomplishing a goal is all about communication within the team as well making sure that all deadlines are meet on time!! There are so teams where you might not have the right people to accomplish the goals therefore you will need to find others to help out!! For a team to be successful I believe that everyone must have at least one MAIN common goal, communication and passion for what they are doing and passion for the reasons that they are doing it!! It's all about the teamwork and the team players!!
