Reflection
From my section, I observed that leadership is a way of leading to the specified person to meet
specified aim and objectives. Further, I obtain many opportunities because of my suitable
leadership skills. These kinds of opportunities could be imperative for reshaping my life (Bolden,
2011). Moreover, it is evaluated that the leadership skills facilitates me conduct suitable
behaviour with others. Moreover, it is examined that a leader could face many issues at the time
of leading team members. A leader could need to improve their many skills with respect to the
leadership to attain aim and objectives. Moreover, team leader has a crucial role in making a
different image of the organization in the marketplace (Eisenhardt & Martin, 2000). Moreover,
it is evaluated that as a leader I was accountable for making a trust between workforces and
reach the valid conclusion. Moreover, I worked in the communication department wherein I
taught many things related to leadership. I performed my duty as a team leader in the group
sometimes that was very complicated for me. Currently, I direct ten number of people to reach a
reliable conclusion. I faced many problems at the time of leading my group member to reach at
the valid conclusion (Erkutlu, 2012). Nowadays, I observed that each member of the team is free
to share anything to me that was very effective for making a reliable relationship with others. I
was not capable to comprehend the issues of others that as very typical for me to retain my group
member as well making a relationship with others. Hence, I started to conduct a small meeting
with my employees and consider them in the decision-making making. It was very effective for
improving my communication skills and relationship with my teammates (Fausing, Jeppe
Jeppesen, Jønsson, Lewandowski, & Bligh, 2013). Through this method, I was also able to
spend my time for my group members as it was imperative to deal with employee’s conflicts and
making a realistic decision. In this journey, I taught many things related to the leadership that

was supportive to accomplish my task and making a huge amount of profit. Moreover, I
practised the democratic leadership style for leading my team members and reach them at a
reliable place whether they deserve. For the accomplishment of the desired goal in limited time, I
think to make weekly and monthly target for my group members. I thought that weekly target
could remind to the actuality of the employee performance but after sometimes I realized that my
team members are confronted form pressure and stress due to nit achieving their target. Hence, I
stop to imply the weekly plan for my team mates for reducing their short-term stress. For
eliminating the employee stress, I practised monthly target that was effective for both employees
as well as the organization (Foti, Hansbrough, Epitropaki, & Coyle, 2017). Moreover, it is
examined that feedback is effective for a tool for the success of the team as it facilitates to collect
the opinion and views of others towards our shortcomings. Moreover, my team use 360-degree
feedback method that was imperative for me to eliminate the organizational issues and meet a
reliable conclusion. 360-degree feedback method is emphasized to collect the opinion of senior
managers towards performance. From the application of this method, each employee is
accountable for giving their real feedback towards the group members to decline their
shortcomings. This technique was significant for me because it facilitates to make transparency
in the team and enhanced each member of the employee (Roy & Abaid, 2016). Due to the part of
the communication team department, I realized that communication is an imperative tool for
solving any issue in the least time. It could increase the probabilities of success in the
marketplace. I used open communication to decline the issues of conflict form the organization.
From the use of open meeting, I was capable to work on each individual shortcoming and
strength that was effective for increasing possibilities of getting higher profit. Furthermore, it
directs to enhance trust between the teammates. In this section, I was able to enhance my
