BRIAN KENNEDY ON: TEAMWORK

POST BY Michelle S.

In today’s world, teamwork may sound like a strange concept. Many people have been taught to solely operate from a place of extreme individuality and self-reliance, because nobody cares about you like you do — be number one at all times as second place is not an option. People try to do it all on their own, but realize that it takes a lot more effort and time to accomplish their goals. They prefer doing it this way because they want all the credit and benefits for themselves, but there is an easier way — working smarter, not harder.

Placing a good team around you will make things go faster and easier. By sharing ideas within your team, you will find that their input could possibly be the difference between good and great. A reliable team of people will do their best to make the whole team rise, which in turn makes each member rise as an individual. In my case, I have two teams: creative and business. Even though they are separate, they seek the same end result; Success!

    I agree with you..I am seeking a team for my endeavors for my multimedia company.  My main struggle is finding the right individuals that are willing to put in work, energy, time, financial resources, commitment, and most importantly dedication.

    This is why as of right now it is easier for me to work alone…i agree that it is a lot slower process, but I can depend on myself and execute.

    Any words of advice on “how” to find the right individuals that will make a great team?  How did you build your team?

    creatively,
