Discussion board 2 please use at least 3 references along with 400 words
You must gain an insight into how a group's decision-making process that works in juries can also work in small-group decision making in the human services field. Specific learning will occur when comparing the similarities and differences between jury decision making and organizational decision making in groups.
In this assignment, you will conduct a research on professional literature using the Internet to address how the jury's decision-making process is both similar to and different from the group's decision-making process in the human services field. The literature may include relevant textbooks, peer-reviewed journal articles, and websites created by professional organizations, agencies, or institutions (.edu, .org, or .gov).
Tasks:
In a minimum of 400 words, respond to the following:
• Discuss how the jury's decision-making process is related to group decision making in human services, such as a governing board of an organization making a decision about an infraction by one of the clinicians.
• Compare and contrast the jury's decision-making process with the group's decision-making process of the governing board of an agency.

Effective teams need leaders with the ability to self-monitor-a key component in emotional intelligence (EQ). EQ is the ability of leaders to know themselves as well as to identify and influence the behaviors of others. EQ comprises five constructs: self-knowledge, self-monitoring, empathy, influence, and mastery of vision.
Leaders must know their hot buttons and understand what makes them upset and angry. Being able to monitor these feelings can prevent the feelings from surfacing and allow a more positive approach to the issue.
In this assignment, you will conduct a research on professional literature using the Internet to explore what makes a great leader. The literature may include relevant textbooks, peer-reviewed journal articles, and websites created by professional organizations, agencies, or institutions (.edu, .org, or .gov).
asks:
In a minimum of 400 words, respond to the following points:
• Describe a situation wherein you were in a group and acted as a leader (relate the situation to the human services field, if possible).
• Identify and discuss leadership traits and skills that you exhibited. What went well and what did not?
• Examine the areas of EQ that you need to work upon.
