End of the exhibition

Well I found the overall experience of the exhibition to be quite stressful. I managed to have one day off but I believe by offering my support on so many days made it a lot easier for the people around me. Decisions had to be made and I believe these were made easier by having me there. Some people required more leadership than others but the hardwork put in by Dan, Kiel, Martin, Teresa, Jon and Craig really made the completed layout a success.

The feedback recieved throughout the week has been in valuable and allows me and im sure the others to improve for the future.

I believe if the exhibition was done again, then we would need a more successful way of displaying the work as towards the end of the week the work started to warp and fall down constantly. I believe this should have been planned for but like many other tasks it was overlooked.

Looking at the main event I am still unsure whether invitations were sent out succesfully as it was hardwork getting answers out of those given the task. I believe my downfalls throughout the week was allowing stress to get the better of me, I believe this was due to a lack of trust in the ones around me as I don't believe the support of the other team leaders was adequate enough. But seeing as though this was the first exhibition put on by many of us it seperated the men from the boys as to who would rise to the occasion of making it a success. As a team leader I believe it is key to highlight those who made it a success, and those previously stated in this entry made themselves available at all times, whether it be a phonecall for advise; solving problems as well as being on hand at the exhibition to greet the public. I believe that my previous management knowledge helped me during the past week and although not everyone agreed with my decisions, I believe they were the right ones to make.
