There is an African Proverb that says, “If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” Teamwork is an inseparable pillar of success. Greatness is achieved through the combined efforts of people who supported a vision. When starting any project, building a strong and supportive team to birth your vision is essential. Here are three things to look out for when building your team:
- Shared Vision
You want to surround yourself with people who are like-minded and share similar goals with you.
- Diverse Skill Set
Everyone is good at something and having a group with mixed talents compensates for the knowledge and skill gaps individual members might have.
- Support
You want people that truly respect and support your vision and take it as their own. This is the key to productivity
