Fostering Teamwork in the Workplace: It Starts With You

Why don’t some people play well in the sandbox together? The elements of a productive and synergistic team are not complicated. So why do so many people say they don’t feel like they are part of the team? Teams succeed when no one person is in charge; but instead, each individual is charged up with commitment, leadership, and accountability—and something to contribute. News flash: There really is an “I” in teamwork! YOU!
