Good teamwork is a value that lots of people want in their workplace but not everyone knows why it’s not there. The problem may not be that you work with a bunch of selfish jerks.
It may simply be a matter that people have gotten out of the habit of thinking of teamwork or the work environment doesn’t create situations where teamwork can be encouraged.
In this week’s 2 Minute Takeaway Podcast, we talk about the power of teamwork and how you can produce more of it in your team.

Ken Okel laughed years ago when a potential employer described him as being “too versatile,” to hire. Rather than run from this title, he’s embraced it.
For more than a decade, TV audiences watched Ken on the news. At several stations, they saw him perform as a TV news anchor, a reporter, a weatherman, and even a talk show host. Ken covered natural disasters, school shootings, and grieving families. It wasn’t always sad as he got to meet celebrities, find out what makes unforgettable people tick, and get paid to do things like free fall 70 feet, ride through the streets in a motorized armchair, and be safely attacked by a police dog.
Ken then moved into the nonprofit world for several adventures. These saw him do everything from running a professional ballet company to organizing more than 100 hurricane relief volunteers.
Today people know Ken for his leadership presentations to companies and associations. Audiences are engaged and entertained as they receive the tools necessary to transform their professional lives. Some enjoy taking part in Ken’s popular Paper Hat Exercise.
