LESSON 1: Teamwork is birthed when you concentrate on “WE” instead of “ME”
Ask Yourself:
- Does my ego stop me from being a good team player?
- Am I able to judge the size of the team challenge?
- Does it benefit others as well as me?
- Is it worth dedicating part of my life to?
LESSON 2: Be mission conscious-The Goal is more important than the role
Always remember:
- If you don’t know where you are going you will end up anywhere
- Vision inspires team
- When you see the big picture correctly you serve the team effectively
LESSON 3: Collaboration is multiplication; all union is strength, all discord is danger
Always remember:
- Complementing one another is more important than competing with one another
- True team members see themselves as a unit working together and never allow competition between team
mates to get to the point where it hurts the team
- Effective delegation divides effort and multiplies results
LESSON 4: Committed and consistent; there are no half-hearted champions
Always remember:
- Ordinary people with commitment can create an extraordinary team
- You don’t have to be really gifted or talented to be committed
- Commitment is usually discovered in the midst of adversity
LESSON 5: Consolidating communication; a team is many voices with a single heart
Always remember:
- Open and candid conversation fosters trust
- The more difficult a situation, the more important it is to communicate
- Don’t let 24 hrs go by without addressing a conflict
LESSON 6: T-Together E-Each A-Achieves M-More
And a bonus quote from Ryunosuke Satoro:
“Individually, we are one drop. Together, we are an ocean.”
