LE – we assessed our leader today.
I found today as a good practice to assess performance of leaders and team members. I imagined myself in a company being a manager and I really would like to implement very often the possibility to assess my behaviour and how I am leading the group to accomplish all targets from my team members. This practice is currently doing mostly by human resources department. Nevertheless, my aim is to do it more often. As a first example of how to implement this purpose is to have a pot where the members of my team might deposit their opinions. Following this, I will do the same, written down my opinion of each other. Afterwards, we would have a meeting where everyone will be able to explain what happened according his or her suggestion. I do not know whether or not, I might damage the job environment, rather than improve it. In this way, my intention will be to understand each team member, their behaviours, how their performance, their problems and why sometimes they are not providing 100 % of their capability. According to the exercise today, our leader listened some comments, which I might say, he would have thought by himself. Perhaps, I am thinking very positive and in the majority of the cases, employees do not take care for what managers think about them, however, using this way, they at least might have the opportunity to express more confidently what is not running very well because of I am acting as blind person who thought that everything is fair

LE–lifeboat was definitely a good started
Today we had a great started. we came up with important points based on the exercise of how leadership might be seen by different perspectives. In my case, I confirmed personal view of leadership in term of, firstly leaders have to be a good listeners otherwise they might not be able to put in the right way people to contribute in order to work out any problem. Secondly, personality and behaviours take a strong part of becoming a good leader and lastly leaders need to be strong in making decisions even though this is not the best one. Following this, the last view will take me further time to understand 100 % because of my job experience, I am the person who takes risk and makes desicions regardless I have not taken in consideration all the things that I had to assess, but at least I can do it rather than people who has better knowledge, however,they do not like to have any responsability we will see how this module might help us to understand and provide ourself new knowledge to be as a good leaders in the future.
