When trying to teach leadership it is amazing how simple certain demonstrations can be but how influential they really are. When wearing the chinese finger links the other day in class I feel that they got the point accross. When it started out just two people running up the stairs it really was not a problem at all and the made great time. As more and more students hooked their fingers together it become more and more difficult to get everyone on the same page and moving quickly. Once Dr. Feinburg joined in the other workers in the company did not realize that he was going to hold them up and they ended up breaking the chain. With the lack of communication between workers it is very difficult to get thinks running smoothly. This was a great presentation and showed some great aspects of team work and how it is not always easy to work as a team if there is no leader or anyone that takes charge.
