Assignment 1: Personal Journal Entry 2

Each member of a group contributes to the group's dynamic even if the member is silent. As a clinical social worker, it is important to understand the dynamics you bring to a group and the role you tend to assume in a group setting. Every individual has his or her own way of interacting. Knowing your own personal style and the role you tend to choose will help you identify your strengths and weaknesses when working within a group.

- Reflect on your participation in the dynamics.

- What role have you assumed in the group?
