ExCEL Report 1 /
Self-Reflection

The event effect on my leadership and team-working and adaptability is quite major as I am able to learn about how a Dr Azli lead his team of colleagues as a principal of KTDI and make his college dormitory thrive before and even during the COVID-19 pandemic. I also learned a lot from Dr Akmali as he shares his thought on how to handle matters post COVID-19 pandemic such as adapting to the new norm, moving forward even losing something important to you and many more.

 

The advantage of me participating in this event is that I am able to gain insight on how to plan out my activities even in a difficult situation. The knowledge that I also able to take out from this event is the methods of planning for the long term which are include how does a leader plan measures to overcome unforeseen problems, moving forward despite oversight in the planning and simply consulting experts to evaluate the effectiveness of one’s planning.

 

The challenge I faced is my dedication of sticking to the plans I made. I tend to wander off course when I am moving with my life and maybe get thrown off course when I am unable to proceed with my plan. To overcome this, I try to learn how to space out my plans for working more separately and dedicate some resting period in between my plans to motivate myself in finishing the activities I planned out. I also try to utilize other people’s input on my planning to gauge my understanding of proper planning. I also try adapting to the plans I made if I really cannot follow along with it.
