On March 23, 2023, the School of Finance held a quality development training activity in Room 446 as scheduled. The event was coached by the Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee and Deputy Dean of the School, Du Yujin, and Deputy Secretary of the Youth League Committee, Wang Xiaojuan. Counselor Tang Lin, Hao Ren, Lv Peifan, and over 30 key undergraduate and graduate students participated.

The event kicked off with lively and engaging icebreaker games, where team members introduced themselves, quickly familiarized themselves with each other, and shortened the distance between them.

In the “Rapid 60 Seconds” game, team members had to guess the numbers represented by 30 pictures within one minute, with one member picking up the pictures in numerical order from the ground. After a brief trial, the team members discussed and came up with strategies such as “dividing tasks to record patterns”, “using logical deduction to guess numbers”, and “working together to increase speed”. After several adjustments, they successfully completed the challenge.

In the “Energy Transmission” game, team members used U-shaped tubes to relay a small ball into a cup through stable cooperation. Each of the four teams demonstrated their unique skills: adjusting their postures, controlling angles, lowering their center of gravity, and proceeding steadily. They encouraged each other after failures, quickly adjusted their state, and set off again, fully maximizing the team’s combined efforts.

The final challenge, “Tangram”, posed a significant challenge to the team members. This task involved randomly reassigning all participants into seven groups. Each group received tangrams of random colors, shapes, and sizes. Through limited exchanges, they needed to meet their individual needs and complete the shapes on their task cards to earn points. Du Yujin and Wang Xiaojuan interacted with each group, guiding participants to enhance communication, understand and help each other, and work together to overcome difficulties.

During the review and reflection session, Du Yujin emphasized that the activity aimed to convey the concept of teamwork and organizational methods to the students. He also hoped that students would fully recognize the importance of cooperation and communication, collaborate in competition, broaden their perspectives, and improve action plans and resource allocation through collective efforts to maximize the benefits for both the group and individuals.

It is reported that this quality development training activity was a beneficial attempt by the School of Finance to enhance the cohesion, communication, and execution abilities of student leaders. The School of Finance will continue to carry out related activities to help young students improve their innovation, collaboration abilities, and overall quality.
