The strength of your team depends upon everyone peddling in the same direction.
In 1968, 2 scientist that worked for 3M accidentally discovered a glue that when applied to a small piece of paper could be easily removed with no residue.
3M had a tradition where employees would share their cool new ideas with the company’s leaders and their co-workers. This meeting allowed the 3M team to share in the excitement of their invention and make suggestions to make it even better. Ever heard of Post-it-Notes?
The story of Post-it-Notes at 3M shows that giving credit is really powerful and proves that just by recognizing your co-worker’s efforts, you can create an amazing product worth billions.
When team members understand each other it helps in communicating and trusting each other more. Putting egos aside means people can grow and work better together.
Appreciation of each other, whether it’s saying “good job” or "thank you", makes everyone feel happy and motivated. And when everyone feels safe in the team, they can take risks, solve problems, and be more creative.
None of us is as smart as all of us. . . It takes A TEAM.
Together
Everyone
Achieves
More!
So, no matter where you work, remember that these teamwork
qualities make your workplace better, happier, and more successful.
