easy way out

During the exercise I examined the situation an felt it was best for me to stand back and let everyone else handle the situation. I definitely needed the help but i saw that others were willing to fight hard for the same thing i wanted. my actions do not fall under the avoidance way because i definitely felt that we were going to be successful; but i did take myself out of the interaction. I feel it was best that i did what i did because if too many people were to get involved then nothing would be accomplished. I am happy with my decision on how i operated in the exercise; i got involved when there needed to be a decision about the T/F questions. After much argument of whether to have them or not a student suggested 5 questions i felt that was reasonable an i chanted 5 in agreement which i think led others to join in on that resolution.
knowing what i know now i would not want to change my way of working on the situation but if i had to i would have worked in a way to compromise. in the end that is how we were successful and compromise is the less of all evils in my opinion. I think we already received the best result so i would not expect improvement for me to change my way of handling the conflict.

the eggsperiment

In the experiment, which my team the egg that could was successful, we employed 4 out of the 5 steps in management planning. we set a goal of making sure the egg survive the plunge from the top of the desk. we may have bypassed the determining the resources as our resources were fixed. i do not feel this hurt us as we had ample materials for the challenge. we did have several ideas as to how to develop a system to keep the egg from breaking. we then combined all of the ideas and made a plan of who should do what as far as building the case. we then implemented it as accomplished our goal. i feel my team did very well and we could not have done anything differently. we managed to through our ideas quickly and decided what would work best and planned how to implement the plan.
