Team Collaboration
At the beginning, it was difficult to work together because we did not interact so much. This was because the team was put together by the results of a test we had made and our own choices for a team. This test showed what kind of person you were and therefore the best team was made. After a while, we started knowing each other better and how each individual worked. We divided all the work equally and put a deadline for every part of the website and every person. We had some arguments, which were not easy to deal with, but they were all settled in little time.
We had different types of people, with also different temperaments, but these all turned out to cooperate with each other very well. We all helped each other at all sorts of points, from traducing a word to coming up with a sentence that would fit better into the context. We all did everything we agreed on, without making a fuss about what to do. We see that we’ve come to a good result, in our eyes, due to our teamwork. We enjoyed working together and would gladly work on a project again, with the same team.
Team Diversity
Our team is very diverse. It includes people form all over the world. Begoña, our team leader, originally comes from Peru. Her parents were born there, but she was born and has always lived in the Netherlands. However, at home she still has a lot of Peruvian influences and speaks Spanish.
Then we have Eduardo, who is Spanish. He was born in Spain and has lived there until he was five years old. Then he came to the Netherlands and has lived here ever since.
Dyonne, who is the oldest of our team, has always lived in Eijsden, a village near Maastricht. She would never want to live in a big city.
Then we also have Jedde. She is completely Dutch and has lived in the centre of Maastricht since she was born. Sef, our shaper, is also Dutch and has always lived in Holland. His parents come from the north of the country. In contradiction to this, Sean’s parents were born and raised in Maastricht and so was Sean.
