Why this matters
Let's be honest: group work has a reputation, and not always a great one. This module won't pretend it's easy. It will help you figure out how you work best, so you can say so instead of hoping things go okay.
You'll take the 16Personalities assessment, look at your collaboration strengths and struggles, and pick up strategies that fit how you operate. All of it feeds straight into Mile Marker #10.
Merit reminder: Merit Activity #3 is due with this module
