Working with a team‚ working for a team and working as a team are very different concepts. This distinction is the biggest lesson I learned from the simulation. A team may refer to a group of people but each member has a specific role to play. The idea of parts joining together to form a whole are analogous to the individual personalities‚ strengths and weaknesses each one brings to complete the team. In our group‚ the leader blended in with the roles of the other members. She would have been more

Oh My Aching Feet In John King Fairbank’s short story‚ “Footbinding‚” Chinese parents choose to bind their daughters’ feet so they could have a better chance for a good marriage arrangement and success in life. A Chinese custom in practice for decades‚ “Footbinding spread as a mark of gentility and upper-class status” and as a way “[…] to preserve female chastity” (Fairbank 403). At a very young age‚ parents tightly wrap their daughters’ feet with cloth to prevent growth and change the shape in

how I utilized my skills to contribute to the teams’ common goals. The correct use of my and every other member’s skills was crucial to succeed in the Everest Simulation. In a team of five people‚ I was the Team Physician. The challenge was to align different private and group goals and maximize total outcome. Consequentially‚ the Simulation proved to be a steady trade-off between personal goals and group objectives. 1. What lessons did you learn about how to build‚ participate in‚ and lead teams

The international simulation report is a compilation of the findings and outlines that reflect advantages and limitations of international trade as a whole. In reviewing the international trade simulation we can find that there are four distinct points that represent the elements that make up the report. I will be reviewing each point in depth along with providing a compare and contrast of the influences and advantages. I will finally conclude with a discussion that sheds light on the issues

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….7 Project Statement Starbucks is the largest coffee house company in the world. They have over 16‚000 stores in over 50 countries. We have one of their outlets in our university. We chose to carry out our simulation project on this particular store because it would be ideal to study a system which has a queue at any time during its working hours. It would also help the company in serving their customers more efficiently and quickly‚ as many have limited time
