submit a professional business memo which is a self-reflection that will address how you approached managing the phase, and your team, and what you learned in the process concerning your team management skills. Specifically, you should address the following questions:

Phase Requirements:

• As manager, what phase were your responsible for during the project.
• What were your goals/objectives for the phase (deliverables required to be completed during this phase)?
• What plan/mechanisms did you put in place to ensure that the team achieved them?

Team Communication and Engagement:

• What was your approach to managing your team?
• What was your plan for communicating with and supporting your team during this phase, to ensure that the desired outcomes were met?
• How did your team respond to your leadership, in your opinion?
• Did you experience any conflict in your project phase and if so, how did you address it? If you didn't experience any conflict, share some reflections about why you think this is the case.

Management Effectiveness:

• What skills do you believe you used well (i.e. what were your strengths), and what evidence do you have of this?
• What difficulties or weaknesses did your experience highlight?
• How might you improve your effectiveness in these areas in the future? What would you do differently next time?

Concluding Reflection:

• Share a concluding thought or key takeaway to summarize your experience as the phase manager.
