What is teamwork?

Why is it important to work in a team? For many of us we use the word team, but what is teamwork and why is it important? Teamwork allows us to create change while having fun. ~ Bill Gates It really all started with a group of friends who could barely work together. They were bored out of their minds at each other's company because they didn't know what they were doing. So they called their boss and asked for help. The problem was that they couldn't do it. All these years later, I can still hear his words coming from the telephone. We only had six days to implement this massive software project, and we just couldn't get things working. After three months, five developers and over 50% of their salary, the team was able to get it working.

That is when things began to move as a team. No more one developer working and then not even knowing if they broke anything. The project was handed over to an organization they weren't even connected to before. The entire team had been working on the same project, side by side, with each other. They became part of each other. They helped build each others' confidence in themselves and their ability. They worked with each other through the ups and downs of development. As they became experts in what needed to be done, the project became a huge success!

In my career I have had the opportunity to watch amazing teamwork in the workplace. It has taught me many lessons that I have now shared with many of my clients. The lessons are universal and apply to all aspects of life. Whether you are working in construction or business or in education, you will find many lessons to apply here. As a team member you too can have amazing results!

Teamwork is about all of you. It is about everyone working together to achieve a common goal. You must all work together. You must trust each other. You must listen to one another. And in some instances, you may have to take a little less in order to give a little more. Because you need the other members of the team. You need to work together for the common goal.

How do you define good teamwork?

Is it a team with multiple ideas and diverse thinking, one that listens well and communicates effectively, a team that works hard and has fun together?

We live in an era of disruption. There are no limits to what we can do, or that which we might be able to accomplish. Many of us live fast-paced lives that demand constant innovation, productivity and efficiency to sustain us. However, in the process of changing ourselves, it is easy to lose the things that are most important to us.

Our team here at UnhappyHour.com is one example. As the first company in this new field to begin making online business tools, all of us here decided to make money and work towards our goals as a team. In less than a year, we found that our team's skills would outstrip our resources, so we decided to give in to our creative nature and allow each individual to decide how to pursue their dreams, just as individuals working together can achieve more.

That decision meant we needed the cooperation of everyone in the group, not just one, just one leader. With the help of our leader and some communication skills, we were able to make team decisions without conflict. We used methods such as regular meetings to decide upon the big picture goals for the year and then worked together on the details.

Today, we have each member of the team feeling that they are important to the team and each other. Our leaders and I even feel we are part of this group of people working together and supporting each other. So what does teamwork actually mean? How can a few people who are working together achieve anything? Read on to find out how we made the most of our talents to make our online business successful!
