Team Synergy

We all know how important team synergy is. Be it a sports team or a corporate one, great things can be achieved by people working together. When people click the impossible becomes possible. People can discuss and debate by setting aside egos. The distinction between work and fun is blurred. Being honest is not considered being too direct. Knowing a team member is more than knowing their name and what feature they are working on. A theme based list exists only known to the team members. Others envy the team. One person leaving the team can have a drastic impact.

In my career I’ve been blessed to have worked with a lot of good folks in awesome teams. It’s important for me (and I’m sure many others) that I look forward to going to work everyday. That includes challenging work and fun people. Having the right mix of people is like having a very delicate balance. You have to be part of one to feel it.
