Do You Have What it Takes to be Part of a TEAM?


Team, in business terms, is defined as a group of people with a full set of complementary skills required to complete a task, job or project.  “Team members operate with a high degree of interdependence, share authority and responsibility for self-management, are accountable for the collective performance and work towards a common goal and share rewards.  A team becomes more than just a collection of people when a strong sense of mutual commitment creates synergy, thus generating performance greater than the sum of the performance of its individual members.”

WOW – What a cool concept!

What better way to excel in any business model than to assemble a team to highlight ALL team mates strengths!  There probably is no better concept…Throw out the me’s, my’s and I’s and get back to basics.  We all grow up, throughout our younger life on teams- whether it be a sports team, an intellectual team, the team-teaching concept in school, our family is even a team of sorts.  All these “teams” groom us for success, always providing a type of parachute of people to help us not fail.  So why not apply this thought to business, as a fun and inspiring way to live in our adult world – It seems so basic!
