Teamwork skills_ Oanh

In the modern times, team working skills play an important role in the social life. Thus, these skills need to be improved frequently through activities in which you involve. I participated in a volunteer club where I have chance to take part in several volunteer events. As our recent event: “....”, thanks to these skills such as: planning, building a team, co-operating with others, resolving conflict, we accomplished our goals with a successful event.
As a member of organisation department, I was a leader of a 5-people-team who had responsibility to set up detail timeline and design background base on the fixed content of this event. First, we had to understand carefully our aim, plan and tasks in order to classify them. Each co-operator must be ensured to complete work on time. That also means I, as a co-ordination, had to negotiate with our leadership to gain commitment for our team’s time and other resources. Besides, all the posibilities must be considered, especially opposite one.
Second, being a member of team, all of his ideas and original thoughts are encouraged and considered seriously. While communicating with each others, contradiction might be occurred. In that case, I had to find out solutions to resolve them. Thanks to that, I have the ability to understand conflict and keep the team focused.
To sum it up, though teamwork activities can offer many challenges, I can be encouraged and given a helping hand so as to develop my strength and improve my weekness. Only when co-operating is not only working together but also accomplishing a common goal, can team be a team.
