Here is a muse on being a team player I wrote for a company newsletter…hope you enjoy!

Being a part of a team is an important aspect of work life. It is rare for us to work solely alone never depending on anyone else. It is crucial for success in our business to be a cohesive unit. It’s not always about liking the person next to you but understanding them. Knowing how those around you work can help create beneficial peer relationships. This helps to accomplish tasks more effectively, provide better customer service and create an overall positive environment for everyone who walks through our door. That’s right, it is our door. We all walk through the same door and stepping into a team atmosphere is a better feeling than trying to walk alone. Remember our customers walk through that door as well and they want to feel that team playing together to provide them the best service. So let’s all work to become better team   players for everyone, including ourselves…we deserve it!

What was your best team experience? How about your worst?
