Teamwork, the ability to work with a group of people and work efficiently, forced and strategically. The junior School Athletics carnival, a role that encounters responsibility, and a chance to be a leader while maintaining a sense of team ethic. The amount of pressure a single person can encounter while dealing with kids ages 7-12, can lead to the whole system crumbling, however, the ability to work in a team can reduce that level of stress and commitment. While working as a team you make bonds, you have a safety net if something goes wrong you have backups to help you, unlike working as an independent person.
This way working as a team, you can manage workload and construct and a safe working environment. Even though there are a lot of different skills I could have written about, I feel like Teamwork would have been more related and relevant to the topic, as there were heaps of different individuals who had to work together. While working with kids you also must be welcoming, caring, and positive. By all of us working as a team, the communication and work ethic was to a high standard, meaning that the day could run smoothly while having fun.
The junior school carnival has taught me a lot of new skills let alone being able to work efficiently while being organized and less independent. The ability to communicate have empathy and show some sort of leadership at the same time is something that comes with time and patience. This experience is an eye-opener, it’s something that I would suggest to anyone who wants to learn more about working with others.
