ALL OF US.<\/p>\n<p>This group, by all means, had that spirit. I&#8217;m\u00a0incredibly\u00a0lucky to have so many wonderful groups here at Sauder. Hey, Tiffany, Devon, Anna, and Linda&#8230; If you&#8217;re reading this, thank you. Tiffany, that was an incredible amount of work you did on the Prezi. It looked wonderful. Thanks.<\/p>\n<p>This collective team spirit is what made me truly enjoy my time working alongside each and every one of you. I understand that we all have different strengths and weaknesses, however, I judge the excellence of the groups I work with\u00a0primarily\u00a0on attitude. To see each and every one of you communicate punctually on our\u00a0Facebook\u00a0group, and attend all the meetings makes me extremely grateful.<\/p>\n<p>I believe we all displayed this positive attitude throughout all the assignments, but I believe I can use the Video Assignment to truly characterize this attitude.\u00a0Admittedly, we started on the project late. However, when we had to come together late in the afternoon and work into the night, each and everyone of my group members were more than willing. We all sat down in HA492 and contributed our voices and ideas. When I offered to stay behind to put final touches on the video, Linda immediately volunteered her time as well. When I realized that the video lagged on my computer, Devon instantly took\u00a0initiative\u00a0and did extra work to process the video on his computer. This supportive, positive, and\u00a0resilient\u00a0attitude is what I hope all my groups would be like in the future.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you again.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/heys\/files\/2013\/04\/teamwork-129741.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-105\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/heys\/files\/2013\/04\/teamwork-129741-300x263.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"263\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/heys\/files\/2013\/04\/teamwork-129741-300x263.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/heys\/files\/2013\/04\/teamwork-129741.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>(<\/a>Source:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.graphicshunt.com\/funny\/images\/teamwork-12974.htm\">http:\/\/www.graphicshunt.com\/funny\/images\/teamwork-12974.htm<\/a>)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When I originally joined COMM 296, I dreaded the group aspect portion of the course.
