This week I was assigned as the Team Lead for The High-Power Density Motor team. I gathered all team member's schedule. I created and color coded an easy to read excel sheet of everyone's schedule. I also set up a time for everyone to meet to start and complete our Lightning talk presentation. I regularly checked in with each team member to make sure that no unexpected event conflicted with our meeting time. I also spent some time researching motor theory to get a simple understanding of our project as advised by our industry advisor, David.
