The mirror is perfect. A reflection of you and that feel-good moment when you pose in front of it as if you are a major celebrity. You are pepped up, smiling at yourself and ready to face the world.
You hardly do that if you are staying home and expect nothing and no one. But you go to work, surrounded by colleagues. Unless you are a total one-man show, you are generally a part of a team. Teamwork improves productivity but what do you care, unless you are the team leader. Position is more important than title. It is the role the team leader plays. If you are a manager in how you approach your position, then you seek more control. The leader understands that nurturing and creating are key to their approach. So, who of the two will be better at creating a culture of teamwork, problem solving, innovation and loyalty? Teambuilding sessions have their merits as being catalysts for togetherness, teamwork and camaraderie. After that though, there is still a need for a culture to develop and, where it is developed, to envelop. Life will be easier if the correct understanding and culture is developed at a younger age. Indeed, even at home, family dynamics are improved with the right culture. At the end of it all, if you are a team leader, then it matters not your title, but your approach. When the team wins, everybody wins. It is a little hard to say to you to be a team player when you are a member of the team but not the team leader who may be “missing in action”. The benefit of being a team player in the absence of such a culture, is that you improve your own leadership skills, and your productivity too will improve. The least you will get is it will make you feel good and boost you.
The strength of the team is when the entire team plays at least at 100%. Your contribution to the team is a reflection of you.
