REFLECTION
What I Learned
Team dynamics have been a significant focal point. Observing how team dynamics shift as the team size fluctuates has been enlightening. It's clear that team roles, communication patterns, and collaboration methods evolve in response to these changes.
Maintain close communication with the life coach, ensuring that their needs and expectations are met. Keep them updated on project progress and any adjustments made due to the team size change.
Next Steps
Seek regular feedback from the life coach to gauge their satisfaction with project progress and outcomes. Make adjustments based on their input to align with their expectations.
Maintain comprehensive project documentation, including research findings, project plans, and task assignments. This documentation will help track progress and ensure transparency.
