Leader activity report/evaluation.

Overview:

Personally I think that we could have chosen a better leader. He didn’t direct others very well and didn’t do much himself. As a leader, one should have certain qualities. Ben, our leader, had none of these qualities. While we were working on the design and structure of our project, he was playing a computer game on his PC. A leader should be able to control his workers and assign certain people to certain jobs. Our leader, Ben, just let everyone decide what they were doing and made no attempt when everything went down hill. The team worked really well, even without a proper leader. Our project, in the end, turned out alright but could have been better if a different leader was allocated.

The Designers:

The designers worked really well, and the structure worked in the end. Despite all the disagreements, it held 300g worth of weight. The design was very simple so the builders could easily follow it.

The Builders:

The builders worked very hard and helped with the design as well as the building. This again should have been under the control of Ben Carrinton, but was a complete failure.

The Researchers:

Only one of our researchers actually researched anything. While the other was playing on games. The research done helped a lot with the design and structure because it made it stronger.

The Equipment Checker:

The equipment checker worked well. Having someone for that job made sure that no extra equipment was used and was a challenging activity.

The Scribe:

The scribe had a page of everything that was needed and the jobs and who was doing them. This helped because if anyone forgot what they were doing or forgot what they needed. They could just look at the page and they would know.

Last but not least:

The Leader:

As I have mentioned before, our leader, Ben Carrinton, wasn’t the best choice we could have made. As he was lazy and made no attempt to sort things out when they went down hill. Because of this, the end result was failure.

Overall:

I feel that the team worked quite well and adapted to any mistakes made by people. Although all could have been immensely improved.
