Project Role: I over saw the redesign of the OADS site. I scheduled the meeting. I ensured that the mission statement and the target audience were a consistent theme during the project. I kept the project on schedule while reassuring both our team and our client that the project would be on time and fulfill the deliverables. My most important role was to set the mood. Maintaining a confidant and calm working environment allowed my team to relax and get things done.

What I learned from the project: I have learned to listen to the people I work with. We are a social animal and need to both talk and be heard. I found that when we had a problem if I listened to my team mates while keeping the conversation on topic we were able to solve very daunting problems with minimal stress.
