10 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD STOP

WORKING ALONE AND

START WORKING WITH A TEAM

1. ACCOUNTABILITY

THE MORE PEOPLE YOU HAVE TO KEEP YOU ON TASK AND ON TRACK, THE MORE LIKELY YOU

ARE TO ACHIEVE YOUR DESIRED OBJECTIVES AND OUTCOMES.

2. COMPLEXITY

COMPLEX PROBLEMS ARE EASIER TO SOLVE WHEN YOU

WORK WITH OTHERS.

3. HIGH FIVES

CELEBRATING WITH OTHERS IS SO MUCH MORE SATISFYING

THAN HIGH-FIVING YOURSELF!

4. LEVERAGE

IMAGINE HOW MUCH EASIER YOUR DAY COULD BE IF SOMEONE OTHER THAN

YOURSELF DID THE SHIT YOU DON’T LIKE DOING?

5. PERSPECTIVE

HOW OTHERS SEE THE WORLD CAN HELP YOU SOLVE YOUR

PROBLEMS FASTER AND EASIER. [AND IT’S SO MUCH MORE INTERESTING]

6. SURVIVAL

HISTORY HAS PROVEN THAT YOUR CHANCES OF SURVIVAL INCREASE

WHEN YOU’RE NOT ALONE.

7. ‘BUS FACTOR’

WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR PROJECT IF YOU GET HIT BY A BUS?

!

IF YOU WORK WITH A TEAM, THE PROJECT CONTINUES…

[THIS IS A BAD NEWS, GOOD NEWS STORY]

8. BIGGER RISKS

FOR MANY LOGICAL REASONS, IT’S SAFER TO TAKE BIGGER RISKS WHEN

YOU’RE PART OF A TEAM.

9. CREATIVITY

IMPORTANT AND BIG PROBLEMS REQUIRE CREATIVE SOLUTIONS.

10. POSSIBILITY

WHEN A GROUP OF PEOPLE WORK

COLLABORATIVELY TO ACCOMPLISH A

COMMON GOAL, BIG THINGS ARE POSSIBLE.
