Re: I'm Team Captain!

Make sure people respect you enough and you are capable of telling someone they need to be better or are slacking. The biggest fault you can commit is not practicing continuous improvement. Even if a team member is performing well, you must be able to tell them to become better. I was president of my team this past year and I was lucky enough to be in a class of seniors that all had that drive to be better and we performed well because of it. Nobody needed to tell us to continuously improve. My biggest piece of advice is to help other students find ways to be better at what they do. Dont be afraid to question or call out upperclassmen or other students and always be thinking of ways to improve efficiency and performance.
