Leadership Portfolio Project and Team Management

Project and Team Management was the second month course during my journey to my masters. In this class we worked on team building skills, and due diligence. The leadership portfolio objective was to pick a non-profit organization and do an RFP. However, my team (SCAR) couldn’t find a non-profit willing to participate in the time frame so our professor provided us with a fictional company to do the RFP.  Our group did an RFP for WXYZ radio station. WXYZ needed to raise more money with community involvement. We decided to plan a Valentines Day auction with the San Diego Chargers and the San Diego Padres.  The event had to be strategically planned with deliverables to accomplish by a certain date. I provided the management section in which I was responsible for during the team project below. I learned with this project everyone must work together and be on the same page to accomplish activities. Every person on the team contributes to a significant task on the project and is very important. I also learned with correct planning and timing a glorious event can be implemented almost effortless.

In order to help WXYZ raise money SCAR is putting together a fun memorable event. The plan is to have a Celebrity Valentines Date Auction with participating members of the San Diego Padres and the San Diego Chargers both players and cheerleaders. The location will be at the San Diego Padres Stadium February 14^th, 2010 at six p.m prompt. First we’re inviting our guest to the first part of the night open bar with finger foods, music and the auction. The participants one by one will introduce themselves and give a brief bio, and the bids will begin at $50, the highest bidder will win the date.  The winners will be announced at the end of the auction and will meet their dates by the stage. After the auction takes place the winners and the participants will dine at the stadium for the valentine dinner catered by Waters Fine Catering and Coca Cola.
