Goal of Assignment 4: Using all LOs concepts and ideas covered in Unit 4, develop a reflection where you analyze yourself as a Complex (Social) System embedded in other Complex (Social) Systems. Reflect on your own thoughts, feelings, and actions (metacognition), obtain accurate self-knowledge about your strengths and weaknesses (self-appraisal), identify biases that undermine accurate self-knowledge (e.g., positivity bias), think about your habits and mindsets, and how complex social systems influence what you think, feel, and do.
Note that while you are being asked to engage in reflection, this assignment should not be written like a personal diary or journal. Instead, use this as an opportunity to engage in a professional self-appraisal.
Step 1: Introduction
Think back to a situation where you were EITHER a leader or a team player and did NOT perform especially well in this role. The situation can be from university, a team sport, family or friendship context, work, or any other setting. Start off by explaining the situation.
Step 2: Conduct your System Analysis #SystemAnalysis
Then present a #SystemAnalysis. Remember to include a multi-level analysis that identifies the (group) agents, their behavior, relationships, and interactions on all levels, as well as the system feature at a specific level of analysis for that situation.
Step 3: Explain your Behavior #BehaviorExplanation
Explain why you behaved the way you did. Make sure you identify the multi-causal relations and feedback loops that influenced your behavior. In this section, do not focus on speculating on why others behaved the way they did.
Step 4: Reflect and Apply Core Concepts #Selfawareness
Accurately reflect on your strengths and weaknesses in this situation. You must apply at least four concepts from Unit 4 in this section to demonstrate reflexivity and an accurate understanding of the course concepts. Based on your reflection and application of core concepts, develop two ways you can optimize your future behavior in similar situations. This advice should be actionable that is relevant to your leadership or teamwork skills. Remember to compose a conclusion of the whole paper in a paragraph at the end of the paper.
Step 5: APA-Style #Professionalism
