Team is not a group of people who work together - it is a group of people who trust, support and help each other.

Team is not a group of people who work together - it is a group of people who trust, support and help each other.

Far too often, organisations have hero mentality, they reward individuals at expense of the team - they forget what Steve Jobs said:

"Nothing great was ever done by one person. It is always done by a team of people." Steve Jobs

Heroes can go fast. 

But -

If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, you need a team of people.

If you are a leader, it is on you to create an environment where teamwork is appreciated and recognized. 

In a team environment, your job is 

  • to make sure everyone gets across the finish line
  • to recognize and reward team behaviors such as helping each other, taking team's goals above own, and working towards common goals
  • do not hire into the team "great contributors" who feel they can be jerks to everyone else - such people will destroy your team faster than you can say Mickey Mouse.
  • empower the team to make decisions and let their best ideas win
