We r TEAM

Sri Vishwasji sends this to all : Ours is a Team Work 

Let us look at the following six principles for individuals working towards being better team members:

Develop good health: Your physical and mental well being has a direct impact on the health of your team. Take responsibility for your health and care of the other team members too.

Sharing often: Misunderstanding is created because someone in the team is possessive or unwilling to share. Don't hesitate to share your knowledge or experience, if it will help the team members to do better. Realize that by sharing, you are contributing to the development of interdependence and faith within the team.

Cultivate common interest: Try to identify your common areas with your team members. Take part in common activities. This creates better understanding.

Take care of what you say: Most of our speech is habitual. It comes from either things we have said earlier, or have heard others say. By being more conscious of your speech, you can avoid negative patterns. By being constantly aware of whether what you speak will help the other individual or the organization, you can develop more positive speech patterns.

Learn to listen: often, on hearing views expressed by others, we react 'this is not what I feel, so it is wrong' or 'this is against what I said, I can not accept it.' Such strong views and deep feelings often limit us .Can we not tone down our individualism? Deep listening and considering others views with earnestness is better for teamwork.

Remember, all are people: REMEMBERING is the key. Working in close proximity, you can observe what makes your teammates happy and what makes them sad, their likes and dislikes, strengths and limitations. Consciously remembering and positively utilizing this knowledge in our interaction with them, conveys the feeling that you care.
