Win as much you can
It was a very interesting game.
In the first few rounds we did great everybody put Y and was a great harmony. But as the game went on and we mix up with the Capital things went from wrong to worst and bead. We lost more than we gain and there was a lot of contention about X or Y, But in the end people follow their instinct and our group end up scoring really low. I think once the game started there was a outside competition and inside competition when the outside competition is stronger people tend to work together more but when the inside competition is stronger they tend to be individuals and everything becomes “me” instead of “as”
I think a lot of people win as individuals but as an organization we fall to achieve our goals and objective. The biggest problem that I saw was greed, pride. I understand that there need to be competition but the question is always there how much what the line is of pushing a goal an interest and what is the price. And in the end it was wart it.

SOS
I really like the logo I think is very professional. Also having the idea of unifying the class I think will help us to have better communications channel’s so I am looking for some activities that we can do to achieve that. Also I think having R. covey seminar in the Seven Habits will help us to keep on truck with our progress and meet all the deadlines as well the requirements.

A stedy, upword course
A Steady, Upward Course
Elder Henry B. Eyring
Brigham Young University–Idaho Devotional
September 18, 2001
I find that was a great talk by elder Eyring that made me realized how blessed we are to be able to attend to this great church school and not only get our education but also strengthen our testimonies.
When we live in a troubled world here at BYU-Idaho we prepared to face all these by having a study course and a great blessing which is each other. "And in that day shall be heard of wars and rumors of wars, and the whole earth shall be in commotion, and men's hearts shall fail them, and they shall say that Christ delayeth his coming until the end of the earth.”And the love of men shall wax cold, and iniquity shall abound."
I believe this place is a great place to be and the blessing that it is was expressed by the prophet and apostles that visit the campus. We as a student we have a lot of goals to achieve as well the faculty and the campus will grow and prosper.
Another effect of that goal will be to bring here only teachers who have the Savior and His goal in their hearts. That choice to put the Savior at the center led to the other key choices made in the transition and will assure that those choices will endure. For instance, President Hinckley said in the announcement: "BYU-Idaho will continue to be teaching oriented. Effective teaching and advising will be the primary responsibilities of its faculty, who are committed to academic excellence. "The institution will emphasize undergraduate education and will award baccalaureate degrees; graduate degree programs will not be offered. Faculty rank will not be a part of the academic structure of the new four-year institution."
Elder Eyring also said: In my mind the overarching theme for all of our scholarly work at Brigham Young University-Idaho should be inspired inquiry and innovation. Let me repeat that: inspired inquiry and innovation. We are not like other institutions of higher education; we have access to the gifts of the Spirit, which cannot be quantified nor counted. There are simply things we cannot adequately define and describe about the process of teaching with the Spirit. But, nonetheless, we should be excellent scholars, and our scholarship should be focused on the processes of learning and teaching. We will not be a recognized and highly regarded research institution in the traditional sense of that term. We will, however, emphasize a wide range of scholarly endeavors and excel in and play a pioneering role in understanding learning and teaching processes with faith and hard work, and in the process of time. His talk end it with a great promise and prophesies which stets: I hope I live long enough to someday meet some employer who employed one of you and says, "Where did that come from? I've never had such a person. Why people just flock around that person. And they want to follow. They don't have to be led; they're seeking to go where that person wants to go. And they come up with new ideas. I don't know where that comes from. They seem to find a better way, and the budget doesn't go up. I can't understand it." And I'll smile and say, "Well, come with me to Rexburg." And I may not be able to show it to you, and I may not be able to prove it to you, but you'll feel it. There will be a spirit here, I so testify, because of the love of God for all of His faithful children. And those blessings will be poured out here in rich abundance.
Is a great talk to remember how blessed we are to be here there are a lot of members in the world but not to many have the opportunity to come here and take advantage of the campus. So I think not matter how hard it is sometime been here is a great opportunity.

Team work
The importance of team work
We are looking to achieve the highest goals in our live we hope to be successful and efficient. So why is team work important? Well all the great success stories in business and in life come from a team work.
The true is that we need each other more than ever. We build this world together and if we are together in this world we need to learn to communicate to love to appreciate to respect to give our best. We are all talented in our own ways and we are all unique. So how do we for a team that will work together?
Going to the basic skills of communication we need to realize that we are not perfect and by working together we can all benefit and instead of having one first place you will end up having ten or twenty first place so is possible to be the best and have the best around you. How much and when and, where we are or be successful depend on out attitude but our efficiency depends more than ever on our ability to be part and work on team.
There is a lot of crime of success but I think that most damaging it is the luck of team work. So let work together, let’s build and grow together. Let succeed as an team an shape by this our character of highlight efficient humans being.

How may I help you?
I am quite impressed with the website I started to see a lot of improvements done in the website. I think is going to be a great experience for all of as. This class had been for me a really interesting experience so far I am excided to see what will happen and how we are going to run this organization from now on.
So I think my only concert that I have right now is if we as a different departments we will be able to function and support each department. I think a lot of us have different experience in some areas of this project and I am hoping that we will be able to function efficient by supporting each other.
So these are way I decided to give few things that I know to do.
I know how to make and design posters, newsletters, business cards, also I had some experience in advertising so if any of these are something that I could help in I will be more than happy.

According to the Success is Built on Inconvenience!
According to the Success is Built on Inconvenience! by Gary Ryan Blair these are some of the things that he sees in building success.
Impress this four-step philosophy on yourself, family, friends and associates: If you set a goal, achieve it, even if it's inconvenient. If you make a mistake, fix it, even if it's inconvenient. If you start something, finish it, even if it's inconvenient. If you make a promise, honor it, even if it's inconvenient If you make a commitment, fulfill it, even if it's inconvenient.
Well after I read the article I think success is more than coming to achieve what you are looking for but rather forming patterns that will lead to small, medium , large, extra large success as well long and short term success that in the end will shape your character. I feel that if we do things because the inconvenience the experience is different but if we sick the knowledge we learn more. I fee that the role of the teacher at BYU-Idaho has been changing with the new school president and there is a lot of adjusting to be made from the teacher but as well from the students. We need to get our from our comfort zone and sick that open potential that is available get our of our bobble and be rather proactive.

Learning Theory
Learning Theory
Context for change
Last time in class we had the chance to talk about how things are changing at BYU-Idaho and how we become the source of the change. Is helping some of the students and teachers and other employees to adapt to the new strategy that university has.
How this applied to our groups?
Needs of the other groups
Rules within our group
Service and surveys done with the groups
Goals for our group
These are some of the things that might help us to group and move in a direction.
Project Team Development
Adjusting
Performing
Naming
Storming
Forming
In the technology department if we go with these plans these are some things we need to accomplish.
We need to for our group in the way that we will be able to see what is going on in our group but also to be able to represent the other group’s interest and know what is going on their side.
We need to come up with a lot of ideas and have them written down. Set a part each time we need for a five minutes where we could storm in a lot of ideas.
We need tot take these ideas and analyzed them to see which of them work and the rest drop them. Also keep our minds open for new ideas and plans of action.
We need to perform. Look for technologies and solution to better ways to do staff.
Adjusting with the other group ideas and solutions so that will make us very flexible and responsive to the organization itself.
Also I think that we need to be able to come with solutions very fast but also we need to make sure that we have people responsible for the work. A good example will be have a work that is done verified but three people before it becomes available to the group so in these way the error will be very low.

I know that there are a lot of confusion in class but we need to come up with a plan and after that make sure that we assign people to a specific job so in this way we are not loosing any more time. Right now I feel that we are not very efficient in communicating and all that creates confusion and nothing is done.
So we need a mission statement also we need to organized as a organization which we did now we are having five department so we need to organized with in the department and make sure that we have a leader in each of the department that will be in charge of how the department will function.
I find it very interesting that is an Organization communication class but we are having hard time to be efficient and productive. I think we need to work as a team and why not some unity games play.
