Effective teamwork will not take the place of knowing how to do the job or how to manage the work. Poor teamwork, however, can prevent effective final performance. And it can also prevent team members from gaining satisfaction in being a member of a team and the organization.

Robert Bales

I just hope I get picked by the right team and the team that really wants me and a team where I can help and take it to the next level.

Trae Young

You can talk about teamwork on a baseball team, but I'll tell you, it takes teamwork when you have 2,900 men stationed on the U.S.S. Alabama in the South Pacific.

Bob Feller

If you're going to preach dedication, work ethic, teamwork, unselfishness, and being part of a team to accomplish a common goal, you have to live it - you can't just talk about it.

Chris Mullin

No team works out teamwork.

Dwyane Wade

You can take a team of absolute all-stars in terms of their native abilities, but if they are not working together, they are much less effective than a team where there is less native ability but a higher degree of teamwork and cohesion.

Stewart Butterfield

For running a country, team work is important, and the person at the helm has to enjoy teamwork.

Sharad Pawar

Teamwork is neither "good" nor "desirable." It is a fact. Wherever people work together or play together they do so as a team. Which team to use for what purpose is a crucial, difficult and risky decision that is even harder to unmake. Managements have yet to learn how to make it.

Peter Drucker

I have no preferred team, but everyone wants to go No. 1 in the draft. Even the guy who gets picked last in the draft wants to go No. 1. But I just know that whoever picks me, I'm going to be excited to play for that team, and I can't wait to see myself in 'Madden' on that team.

Robert Griffin III

I'm a player that wants to do their best for the team and work hard. And maybe people take that the wrong way, I don't know.

Mason Mount

Find out what the other team wants to do. Then take it away from them.

George Halas

Everyone wants to make the Olympics. Everyone wants to pretty much just play on the team or at least try out.

Collin Sexton

When you turn your team upside down and try to figure out what the culture of the team is, you take the greatest risk a team can take.

Mark Cuban

If you think and achieve as a team, the individual accolades will take care of themselves. Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence win championships.

Michael Jordan

Performance is really an important part of how I edit. I sometimes take something out because I realize I put in a joke just to be funny and the audience laughed, but I should be ashamed of myself. I sometimes take out sentences, which are perfectly fine on paper, just because they don't flow when I say them out loud. I always read my work out loud now.
