How do the choices we make set our future path? That was the driving question from our trip to the pinnacle pursuits at loon lake. We went on a week long trip to bond as a team but also learn about leadership and how we can apply skills and ability’s to communicate and work better. There were three competencies we focused on;  processing, analyzing, and decision making. Processing is about thinking critically, creatively, and reflectively and using multiple ways to do so. As an example, during our time at loon lake we made shelters in the forest out of sticks, that required creative thing as well as critical thinking to complete. Although most of them had deeper meaning we did a lot of creative activity’s while we were there. Analyzing is about identifying, analyzing, and coming up with conclusions while keeping bias, relevance, and authenticity in mind. We learned a lot about making decisions fairly and understanding the facts of a situation first. Decision-making is about evaluating ethical implications and making complex judgements while identifying and respecting diverse communities. We did a lot of activity’s that focused on diversity and being inclusive of everyone but we also did activity’s showing how we can all relate one way or another. On the last day we needed to come up with a transfer goal (something we learnt that we are going to apply in our daily lives) and I decided to keep talking to the people I didn’t really talk to before the trip. It was way more fun than I expected and I’m glad we went, it was also a great learning experience
