Collaboration and Teamwork
With the speed and complexity of business today, almost all employees are members of virtual, cross-functional, or internal teams. Individuals need to collaborate and work with colleagues and team members to manage projects, create innovative approaches, and address ongoing business needs. Effective team members know how to share responsibility, information, and ideas appropriately; demonstrate respect and value the contributions of others; act cooperatively to resolve differences; and give and receive feedback to improve their own and the team's performance.
"If everyone is moving forward together, then success takes care of itself."
— Henry Ford
