I am sitting here working away and wondering where the true meaning of TEAMWORK has gone. Most of the phone calls and emails first line is āWhat is in it for me?ā.
Not, what is needed, how can I help, where do you need me or sure, what do I need to do!
There never was an āiā in Team and Success is not a Solos Act!
So pondering sitting by the desk wondering where this mind set came from, and not finding the answer, because my mind never has worked that way. Even kids from an early age learns how to use Team Work to get to a common goal
I could not have been able to say it better than
Andrew Carnegie:
Teamwork is the ability to work together toward a common vision. The ability to direct individual accomplishments toward organizational objectives. It is the fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon results.
Or
Vincent Lombardi: The achievements of an organization are the results of the combined effort of each individual.
I like the one of the lines in Linda S Fitzgerald blog on “It takesā¦ā¦. a village to raise a child!”
Quote: Help each other be accountable to those goals and overcome the unique challenges that impede each woman’s move in the direction of their desired outcomes.
Yes, it takes a village to raise a child to become a mature, self-disciplined adult. And it takes a TEAM of women who know that a sense of COMMUNITY is the way to insure each woman’s arrival at her desired destination.
Let us not wait any longer to come together for our mutual benefit. Let us not let another day go by without seeking others who share a common purpose.
