Teamwork Is the Key to Business Success
Today most businesses are looking for people who are good team players. The ability to work with and get on with other people is so important that many large organizations spend millions of dollars on finding the right people for their business.
At the recent Success in Business Conference, some of Europe’s most successful businessmen told us how they found good team players.
“A good team needs people with different skills and talents. It is good to bring new ideas into the organization. The best people can work with other people and develop ideas with a team. It is important that everyone uses their talents in the business. I look for people who have the skills and talents my business needs, but they must be able to work in a team.”(John Brown, Design Works)
“At interviews I like to bring a group together and look for people who work well in a group. A good team player is usually friendly and easy to talk to. They are also good at listening to other people. They are generous and happy to share their ideas. ”(Lee Chung, Computer World.)
“Most teams need a mixture of people. It is great to have people with ideas but you also need people who get things done on time. A team made up of people that all have the same skills would not work. You need to know what you are looking for.”(Jane Lin, Lin Electricals)
“I look for people who can bring out the best in other people. In a group you can see the people that know how to get a team working together. They understand teams and they can make them work. A good team is the key to success.”(Jim Khan, Northern Bank)
Everyone agreed that teamwork is the key to business success!

For a long time being happy was considered something that just happened, and there was nothing special about it. Now we know that getting along with other people is something that we can work at. It is possible to act in such a way that other people will like us better. One way is being unselfish, not wanting everything from our friends. Another way is to look for good points, not bad points in other people. It is surprising how successful this treasure hunt can be.
You do not have to be spineless (优柔寡断的) in order to be popular. In fact, you will be liked or loved if you are not afraid to stand up for your rights (正当行为). But do it politely and pleasantly. Being friendly and polite to your group, to other people and to strangers and especially to those who do not look important or do not interest you is one way to develop a good character.
You cannot expect to be perfect, and you must learn not to be unhappy when you make mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes, and no one is to be blamed if he does not refuse to learn from them. Many young people become discouraged (灰心丧气的) when they know in themselves qualities that they do not like—selfishness, laziness, and other unpleasant qualities. Just remember that we all have some of these faults (缺点) and have to fight against them.
At the same time, it is important to remember that while you are probably no worse than others, the best way to be happy is to think yourself above other people. When something is wrong, it is good sen
se to try to make it right. Perhaps you do not like a teacher or a classmate. Try to see why, and look at yourself, too, to be sure that you are not doing anything to make that person dislike you. Some day, things may turn out all right when you have to learn to get along the best with the situation, without thinking too much about it. Worrying never helps in a situation you cannot change.
