Global Teamwork
When you are in a multicultural team or group...you might have a mission together...something that puts pressure on the team to come up with a great result...
You will look to the weakest member....you will scan who is strong and who knows something...
...the you may ask yourself, what will you do...?
If you strive to bring in what everyone has to contribute...
...without regard to verbosity, eloquence, or talking...
......if you can discern the shades of meaning in what the shy ones in the team are saying...
........even if you can bring them along, however you may because you all are one team...
You have begun to know what global teamwork is....
If you see that you can be a leader when otherwise you would lead knowledge...
....this time you just lead people to a goal..
If you can possibly believe that being a leader in these conditions is as strong as when you know little and someone else is the leader.....
Then you are ready for global teamwork...
Without that basic attitude of modesty, humility, realistic contribution....you are not worth the trip...
When you want to be a global team leader, you love the diversity itself...
You are attracted to it....it is natural.....
You shine in this diversity and you bring even more teamwork to this group than it had before you were there....
That is your challenge...
That is the global challenge...yesterday, today and tomorrow...
