My group consists of 4 ladies, Sue Min, Evon, Mt and myself.
Once we got the group in class, we quickly meet up to form the basic structure of the group - Design Lead, Content Lead, Logistic Lead and Technical Lead. It's also the time we try to get to know once other a little better by understanding each others' MBTI and Belbin's Team Role.
In short, we have 3 team workers and 1 manager and resource investigator combination in this group. It's quite challenging for me to work in this group. My understanding of one another prior to the team work we are going to start might gives me some worries. After thinking very hard, I thought of understanding each other better by conditioning this group to be an honest and free-to-speak style of group culture. No matter what impression we had toward each other, we want to work by understanding each other's concern in order to avoid unnecessary conflict or misunderstanding in the future.
Below are things that we mentioned as what we try to avoid in our group work.
Since we have most of the team worker, and each of us are having very unique way of understanding the project and coming out with ideas, we went through many many many round of meetings before we come to a conclusion.
Most of the time at this stage, I am feeling a little worry and exciting at the same time. Reason because I've learnt from the previous group project the strength and weaknesses of the team leader. Those are also reflection that makes me look into myself, and I realized that I don't have some of the quality my previous leader had.
But I am exciting as I am really looking forward to see how can our group have fun with such and artsy and experimental project compared to all the boring and restricted interactive brief. Since the main reference we have, website that called Body>Data>Space leave us such a wide room to explore the scope of project, we really want to get the most out of such fun brief.
