The power
of team
Daniel Giles has an unusual job
description. He's the learning opportunities
facilitator at Character Cabinets, an
Armadale business that works on kitchen
design, renovations and high-quality
cabinetmaking.
He was at a juststartit.co networking
breakfast recently when he heard about some of the things happening at North Lake. "It sounded like
fun," he told North Lake News, "I decided to find out more."
Recently Daniel spoke to Craig's P25 class, made up of Business
Cert lll, AIT and Design Graphics students, and provided some
insights into team work. Teams are vital in classrooms and also, as
Daniel pointed out, in sport, business, the military and even in
nature.
Daniel said good teams have a lot in common including good
planning; common goals and they take advantage of the individual
strengths of the team members. "Good teams always follow
through," he said. "Team members don't let the team down and they
support members of the team who may be struggling. It's about
sharing the load and sharing responsibilities."
To reinforce what Daniel had been talking about the large class was
split into groups for a team challenge. The task was to create a
structure capable of supporting a partially filled plastic water bottle.
The structure was to be built entirely of squares of plain paper.
The teams soon learned that communication was a key in coming up
with a successful solution. There were lots of ideas from towers to
concertinas and each group had successes and failures along the
way.
