"Some sailors tried to jump ship . . . Paul saw through their guise and told the centurion and his soldiers, ?If these sailors don't stay with the ship, we're all going down.?" Acts 27:30-31
The quality most needed among teammates amidst the pressure of a difficult challenge is collaboration. Becoming a collaborative team player requires a change in four areas:
- Perception: See teammates as collaborators, not competitors-completing one another is more important than competing with one another.
- Attitude: Be supportive, not suspicious, of teammates-if you trust people, you will treat them better. And both you and they will be more likely to create collaborative relationships.
- Focus: Concentrate on the team, not yourself-author Cavett Roberts points out, "True progress in any field is a relay race and not a single event." If you focus on the team and not just yourself, you will be able to pass the baton when necessary.
- Results: Create great victories through multiplication-collaboration has a multiplying effect on everything you do, because it releases and harnesses not only your skills but those of everyone on the team.
