I am a great fan of Sports, love
watching all the competitive sports and playing them to whatever extent I can. I introduced many of my friends to sports and their fun, where ever i work on any assignment. The best part about sport
is it brings together a group of individuals with different skill set and
talents and makes them work harmoniously in a coordinated manner to achieve a
given goal. The sport not only brings out the best out of an individual to win
but also brings about the humility to accept the defeat, appreciate the
strengths of others. Learn from your mistakes and work harder \ better, with
proper communication & understanding of strategies, to win the next
time.
In my view, project teams are no
different from sports teams, where individuals with different skill sets come
together to work as a team and deliver a product \ service that makes the
client successful in their business. As it is in sport, in a project team we need to
work together by complimenting each other with better communication and
understanding to bring success to our client at the end of the project. There were several times that I was reminded that “Communication and working together
as a team” is the most important factor in success of any project! With
the successful go-live we had at projects, it reinforces the same.
In one of the desks at a project I found this quote by Henry Ford, that I found it appropriate on this
occasion.
“Coming together is a beginning, staying together is progress, and
working together is success”.
RESPECT! J
