Exercise: Team Journal
Select a team to which you currently belong. Keep a journal of this team for a week or more during the semester. Record your thoughts about:
• Conflict and how you as well as other team members manage it
• Team leadership, creativity, and productivity
• Communication among team members
• The team's ability to utilize its diversity
Note: As you and your classmates discuss conflict, communication, diversity con-sciousness, and other concepts related to teamwork, you may want to share pertinent entries from your team journal.
