Team Work
Pays High Dividends
Strengthens Human Relationships
The
Science of Success Management System strongly emphasizes the importance and
need to maintain harmony within yourself; and also fostering, building and enhancing
cooperative relationships. Many people recognize
the potential value of teamwork where it is also known that the concept of
teamwork is a vital principle to success.
Humans
are not made to live alone. To achieve
personal success, there is a need for all of us to understand that there is
strength in numbers and integrity through unity. The focus is upon the cooperative
spirit. Present and future depends on
the ability of a person to join hands with others.
The
cooperative spirit is a gift that can be offered to another human being. It’s a torch that can be passed on, holding
the light of hope, love, peace and harmony.
There are two (2) important concepts that are related to teamwork and
the cooperative spirit:
i.
Consensus (to arrive at a point of agreement).
In today’s management decision-making
system, much emphasis is placed on participatory management. When group consensus is reached, the
decisions made are consistently better and more appropriate than a unilateral
decision by an individual or dictator.
ii. Reciprocity (relates to each individual’s
unique capacity to give and receive).
Reciprocity
can be described as the ‘give and take’ process. It characterizes the cooperative spirit of
every number who is bound by common goals and interests.
Friendly
cooperation always pays off. It provides
a positive mental attitude that does not recognize obstacles except to use them
as stepping-stones to opportunity. It is
a mark of great wisdom when any person displays skill in winning the friendly cooperation
of their associates. Teamwork in a
spirit of friendliness, costs little in time and effort, but pays huge dividends
in money and in the finer things of life.
