Each member of the team received timely and positive feedback on their work. In addition, I made myself available to each team member so that they could voice any issues or concerns that they had. In doing this, I received a few team members and was able to offer my support, either in the form of a pep-talk, positive feedback or in the form of helping them to resolve a problem. I believe that at no point did a team member feel that they did not have my support.

I believe I performed adequately on the issue of confrontation. The project went relatively smoothly, so there were few instances where confrontation was required. However, the sense that I have with respect to my performance was that I was still somewhat weak on the issue of confrontation. My emphasis on support was driven in part by my desire to avoid having to deal with a confrontational issue. I did not, as a result, use constructive confrontation as often as it may have been warranted. I also felt that my team may not have responded well to my version of constructive confrontation. I still lack experience in this area and consider it the weakness that I most need to work on.

With regards to energizing, I feel that the team was quite energized.

From the beginning, I conveyed tremendous enthusiasm for the project. This "roll-up-the-sleeves" attitude rubbed off on the team and the work went quite smoothly. I fostered a positive atmosphere, such that whenever team members met they were smiling and feeling good about the work they were doing. The results were better than expected, in terms of the high level of teamwork, the rapid pace of work and the quality of results. I feel that I successfully raised my energy level and the team responded positively to this.

Overall, I feel that I made great strides as a leader. I believe that I was able to create a supportive, energetic environment. In one sense, I feel that I still have room to grow as a leader because the lack of adversity on the project did not give me the opportunity to adequately build my skills in constructive confrontation. However, in another sense I feel that if the project does well and there is no need for such confrontation that signals success with respect to building a supportive, energetic atmosphere around the team. I understand that for myself there is still room for improvement in some areas, but certainly the results were strong enough that I can feel good about my development as a leader.
