How far did I come in the development in my leadership skills and why?
Leadership skills introduced me to the concept of Growth Mindset as the
first and the most important attitude that every student at Hult IBS must
have. Growth mindset is translated as the way of thinking in which the
person set themselves to continuously open the space to develop specifically
in 3 competencies and skills: adaptive thinking, interpersonal influence, and
team collaboration.
It wasnt too difficult for me to infuse the Growth Mindset within myself as I
was basically coming to this school with the intention to stretch myself to go
beyond my current capacity and excel. Moreover, I stated it on my LinkedIn
summary and every cover letters that I sent, just to keep me on the track to
grow.
However, the challenges that came along with this correspond positive to it.
The more I aim to excel my capacity, the intense the challenges I get. I was
taught about performing by listening through over 5 (five) different teams I
had throughout 3 modules. The team members were coming from mix
nationalities. Yet, we had to stand on our one goal despite all the differences
we had. Nothing has made you learn the world other than meeting and
working with people with different culture, different thinking and working
style, and different preference. Again, active listening works well with those
differences that translated more in team dynamics rather than team conflict.
You may repeat what you listen just to confirm as well as to clarify parts you
dont clear. I applied this skills most in the last module team assignment and
simulation. Those confirming repetitions and clarifying questions were also
aimed to present my opinion or ideas in the end. Thus, the discussion was
created without having the team member feeling that someone pushed their
own opinion. At best, teams were become more positive, made physical

Thank you to my triad that had continuously partnering me in this active
listening practice. Doing a serial GROW coaching session had made me
come naturally in articulating all the confirming repetitions and clarifying
questions. I have this skill shaped in very well manner and this is not just me
