Team Spirit – A Myth

It is quite often that noticed that global Multi National Companies are seeking workforce who can work in sync with a big team, as accomplishment of any work requires coordination and support of the team members. Therefore, often such coordination is mixed-up with the concept of team-spirit. However, it is very important to distinguish the concept of team-spirit and coordination.

Everywhere, where results are yielded by the workforce, we noticed that work has been batched into several components and each individual is given a separate batched work to finish it in stipulated time to accomplish the desired objective. Therefore, team manager / coordinator’s job is to check each individual and create a semblance between them to finish work as per the time line. Each individual is working separately to finish the work assigned to him / her.

Therefore, no way it’s team-spirit which is often quoted as the desirable criteria for eligible workforce, it is the person’s sincerity, his sense of understanding the issue at individual level and group level makes all difference to finish the time which is again a coordination between various individuals.
