After participating in STAR Leadership activities and reflecting upon my behavior as a member of a team, I am more aware of myself and others and focused on using the skills I’ve learned to work efficiently in a team setting. The STAR Leadership program has had a profound effect on how I communicate with, support, and encourage teammates, which often makes working with others a more meaningful and productive experience.
I am grateful to have been involved in the STAR Leadership program because it has given me the opportunity to explore my own personality as well as others in a guided and meaningful way through various activities and group work with personal reflection. Thus, the experiential learning that Austin College provides in class work has been transposed to concepts vital to teamwork in the workplace, which will make me more competitive as an employee and effective as a team member.
