I have learned that it is okay to speak up when you have a lot of new tasks that are being assigned. Saying yes to every single thing can sometimes be a downfall. Using your voice matters. Becoming more efficient every time you do a task matters. And, assessing how much time you spend on each time matters too. 

The dump and run method is very common. I realize that its important to follow up on requests that are sent to staff. We need to close the loop! This will ensure that all tasks are taken care of and no one assumes the task was completed. This is best practice! What I have begun doing this year is sending follow up messages to my team when I hold a meetings to ensure that all information I covered, verbally, is also communicated in writing. 

Self care is extremely important when it comes to stress management. 

Bring out the best in us.

I learned how to effectively communicate and make sure to include an understanding of bother perspectives.

It's important to schedule time for creativity/where nothing is planned.

I feel like its away nice to go in to anything with a plan rather go with nothing 

That conflict can be managed in other ways. 

I learned that conflict at work is often less about the surface issue and more about emotions, perceptions, and unmet interests. One key takeaway for me was the importance of separating positions from interests. People may argue strongly for a certain outcome, but understanding why they want it is usually where solutions are found.

I've learned a lot about how I should prioritize my daily tasks and not to feel guilty or overwhelmed if they're not all completed in one day. I tend to stay late and that's not conducive to my work/life balance. I've also learned how to use my time wisely when I'm in a slump and not to push through resulting in poor results or wasted time.
