What is a team and why is teamwork important? There is a popular saying that goes: "no man is an island" and this is true. In my career I have experienced working alone and working with a team. I only experienced working alone once, and it was hell. Sure, you get to do things right on your own but you end up burned out and it gets lonely overtime.We are social beings whether you accept it or not. One cannot forever deny the fact that he has to get along well with people in order to survive. When I say survive, I don't mean merely to eat, drink or breath. I'm sure you get the idea. In this article, I will attempt to give appreciation to "you" on the value of teamwork. The concept of teamwork is extremely important to the success of any team. All coaches talk about working as one unit, as a unified team. Teamwork and unselfishness create the backbone of a great team, without them a team cannot realistically compete. You can have a group of superstars, but if they do not work well as one unit, chances are they are not going to be as successful as you would think. The team working as one cohesive unit is going to be the key in their success. o succeed at the task in hand everyone involved needs to combine their efforts. If everyone does their job well, then it increases what the team can accomplish. This teamwork has to be recognized by everyone and know that great things can happen if individuals master the fundamentals and work together as one unit. Everyone has their own unique role, but each person's individual role must be recognized and appreciated. Teamwork is something that must be a high priority and given constant attention. Every player needs to understand how important it is for them to work smoothly together if they want to be successful. Each player must be dedicated to the whole team and be willing to act unselfishly. When challenges arise (as they always do), the team needs to have the resources, accountability and commitment to deal with them in a constructive and positive manner. A sense of teamwork will play an integral part in this.Just remember T.E.A.M. - Together Everyone Achieves More!
