Teamwork

Goodness so I haven't updated this blog in what 2 weeks and they change up the format!! I almost didn't know what to do to get this blog up. LOL
Well Easter holidays had me at once kinda busy and very lazy. The children were on break so I felt bad sitting in front of a computer. On top of me fighting the flu and my old age asthma see what we did here.


Recently I have been thinking about teamwork.
and how being in a relationship like a marriage requires teamwork.
Being a part of a team.
What does that mean exactly?

 according to Wikipedia

A team comprises a group of people or animals linked in a common purpose. Teams are especially appropriate for conducting tasks that are high in complexity and have many interdependent subtasks.

A group in itself does not necessarily constitute a team. Teams normally have members with complementary skills and generate synergy through a coordinated effort which allows each member to maximize his/her strengths and minimize his/her weaknesses. Team members need to learn how to help one another, help other team members realize their true potential, and create an environment that allows everyone to go beyond their limitations. 

I think everybody has an idea of what a team is and being in one.
I believe I have said this before, the hubster and I don't make a good team for the most part. We are both bossy, opinionated persons who are always right and both like being the leader. We are working on this though.

Looking at this definition however there is no leader or follower, just members. hmmm.
I especially like this part -Team members need to learn how to help one another, help other team members realize their true potential, and create an environment that allows everyone to go beyond their limitations.

What is your definition of team? Does it look anything like Wikipedia's?
Food for thought.


Have a great weekend.
