Responsibilities and Leadership

In my internship I have been given responsibilities within groups that I am to report back to. I have the opportunity to contribute my ideas and opinions in meetings and discussions. Later this month and towards the beginning of December, I will be giving presentations to the analyst in  my department about various revenue forecasting methods used in budgeting and how organizational theory plays a role in the office as part of a diversity based training. These responsibilities hold me accountable to my co-workers while learning the content of my projects and practicing my public speaking and presentation skills.

One of the biggest ways that I have seen leadership displayed in the office is through teamwork. I have found that everyone works well together. If someone doesn’t have the answer to a problem, someone else will surely have it, and everyone is open and willing to work together. After all, everyone is working toward the same goal and it is important to have a collaborative environment.
