Turn my paper into a 5 to 7 minute speech.
Group Leading Report Instructions
You will produce a 5–7-minute video report on your experience leading a group meeting. The purpose of this assignment is to provide disclosure about your meeting and demonstrate learning from the experience by analyzing the session and its participants. You must also assess the effectiveness of your pre-planning and leadership behaviors. References to the course literature are optional; however, familiarity with the terminology and best practices therein must be evident. Your presentation must include the following sections/main points:
1.Introduction
Introduce yourself and disclose key facts about your meeting, including: date, time, duration, location, setting and set-up, number of participants, your relationship with them, and whether a co-leader was present. Briefly (in one or two sentences) reiterate the nature and purpose of the group and your prior role and involvement. If the actual meeting and its participants diverted from your proposal, explain why.
2.Group Dynamics, Content, and Process
Describe the progression of the meeting from beginning to end paying particular attention to group dynamics and how members responded to you and the content you provided for the session. What was the group’s level of engagement and participation and what different leadership techniques did you utilize?
3.Self-Assessment
Reflect on your facilitation and evaluate your performance, providing specific examples from the meeting. What were the main challenges you encountered? What do you feel you did well and what do you think you should have handled differently?
4.Conclusion and Application
Briefly summarize the highlights of your experience and your most important takeaways. How will you apply what you learned to future group leadership? It what areas do you need to enhance your group skills? End with a concluding thought.
When you organize your presentation, you must make sure each required section/main point is sufficiently developed given the time limit. Transitions between subtopics must be clear and maintain flow of thought. The video must be of sufficient quality for a professional setting and show you speaking, ideally from the waist up. Your delivery must demonstrate a willingness to communicate with attention to audience engagement, articulation, pronunciation, tone, absence of vocal fillers, eye contact, posture and movement.
