Student feedback
Hari took on a leadership role within the team and demonstrated strong accountability, initiative, and commitment. He followed through with his teammates and made a genuine effort to engage them in the project, even when some were unresponsive and did not attend meetings. Managing a team where certain members lacked communication and accountability was a challenge, but Hari handled it with professionalism, patience, and persistence. Although the difficulties with team engagement were not a reflection of his leadership skills but rather of the selection process, he remained dedicated to ensuring progress. He was punctual, responsible, and displayed both compassion and empathy while working to bring the team together. His ability to facilitate communication between team members and with me made him a powerful ally in ensuring the project’s success. Hari’s leadership, problem-solving skills, and unwavering accountability made him a key contributor to this experience, and I highly appreciate his efforts.
