It was only 150 years ago when we used horses for transportation and candles for light. Today we have cars, planes, and space shuttles. Today we have LED lights that are unbelievably bright and use very little energy.
It was only 30 years ago when we had landline phones at home and pay phones in public. Today we have cell phones capable of anywhere communication and unlimited information with as much computer ability as a laptop.
Change is inevitable, and so is change in the work environment. People change, computers change, processes change… the world changes. And so, we must change and adapt to survive and grow.
Process improvement involves the business practice of identifying, analyzing, and improving existing business processes to optimize performance, meet best practice standards or simply improve quality and the user experience for customers and end-users.1
Everyone is different and has their talents, ideas, strengths, and weaknesses. When the parts are used properly, a team can be more capable, more efficient, and overall, more successful than someone working alone.2 Being a master of one or a jack-of-all-trades in today’s world does not bring about success if you are unable to work as part of a team. The importance of teamwork cannot be stressed enough!
The act of linking people together. In management it is a vital role. Unfortunately, “Lack of Communication” is one of the top problems in many organizations.
The act of people working together in an organized way. The absence of coordination could lead to an incapability control, confusion between stakeholders, inefficiency in resources usage, and replication of work. Among the main coordination difficulties in any organization is the one between the main office and field units and cultural differences between stakeholders.
The process of shared achievement: Two or more working together to establish shared objectives. Different from communication (to share information), it is about applying information to generate something none of the cooperators can achieve alone. Moreover, the opposite of cooperative is competitive.
COOPERATION/TEAMWORK is the key to make the plan work effectively and to overcome problems that may arise.
