What is Teamwork in a Company?



A lot of people, especially those at the decision maker level (Managerial Leadership). They view teamwork as being a Yes-Man to the top. Often there comes into scenarios whereby if anyone disagree and explain on their disagreement, this person will be view as someone who are without teamwork and trying to go against the whole team. This is totally a wrong perception and rather it is a dictatorship.

There are certain criteria that are required to practice in Teamwork.
1. The members should brainstorm the pros and cons of the issues.
2. From time to time to conduct assessments on the progress for further improvements and encourage all members to participate in the brainstorm and provide concrete suggestions.
3. The Top Position (Managerial Leader) is required to has the abilities to identify his/her team members' strength and weaknesses so can put the right person at the right positions and tasks.
4. At the end of the task, all team members to conduct evaluation the results for future reference and improvements.
5. The leader and team members have to create a sense of belongings feelings among all.


There are few steps for decision making and not based on the feelings and ultimate power from One Person who is holding the Top Position.

One of the effective ways is to apply the Rational Model (Uzonwanne, 2016) which includes the followings steps: -
1. Identifying the problem that requires a solution
2. Identifying the solution scenario
3. Carrying out a gap analysis
4. Gathering facts, options, and alternatives
5. Analysing option outcomes
6. Selecting best possible options
7. Implementing decision for solution and evaluate final outcome
