TEAMWORK:A KEY TO ORGANIZATIONAL SUCCESS
The success of any organization depends on how well its members communicate and handle
tasks together. Clearly, teamwork is an essential part of the everyday organizational activities
because it provides information, motivation, and, ultimately, better decisions. For example,
without collaboration, the information about important activities would not be shared among the
members of the organization, which could result in poor awareness and results.
Importance of teamwork in organization
 Promotes Problem Solving.

Teamwork is important due to the problem-solving synergy gained from multiple minds
working on a solution.
 Improves Communication of Ideas
Teamwork is the backbone of effective communication within a company. When
employees work as individuals or independently on projects, they may not readily share
knowledge or new information
 Increases Work-Flow Speed
Cohesion from teamwork can greatly increase the work-flow speed of a company.
 Learning from Team Members
When employees work together as a team within a company, every employee learns from
one another. This knowledge is not limited to the personal experiences of coworkers;
employees from different departments may learn information from each other regarding
the limitations and possibilities of those departments

problems and generating solutions because of an opportunity to brainstorm.
 Better Creativity – given that organizations constantly need new ideas to stay competitive
and relevant, they need to use team because they are more effective at bringing fresh ideas
to the table.
 Better Support System – an employee who works alone may operate less efficiently as
teams because when he or she fails to meet the deadline and get the job done, there is not
support to come. On the other hand, team members support each other and help in the time
of need.
 Better Morale – while working in teams, employees generally receive more praise, so
they feel like they contribute to something special and are acknowledged. By working in a
team, people develop a sense of community and commitment to each other and mutual
goals.
