•  Effective Leadership: Work teams frequently have a designated leader or group of leaders who are in charge
                     of guiding and directing the team. Good leaders can assist in keeping the team engaged and on track, as well
                     as address issues and challenges that may emerge. They may also contribute to team bonding and developing a
                     healthy team culture.
                    •  Trust: Effective cooperation requires trust and respect among team members. Team members that trust and respect
                     one another are more likely to collaborate and work effectively together. Respecting one other's thoughts and
                     viewpoints, being open to feedback, and being willing to assist one another can all contribute to this.

                    •  Diversity: Work teams that are varied in terms of age, gender, colour, and other demographic factors can bring
                     a diverse set of viewpoints and ideas to the table, leading to more imaginative and successful solutions. Diversity
                     can also contribute to a positive team culture by fostering a sense of inclusivity and respect among team members.

                 Overall, there are numerous aspects that can influence a work team’s performance. Organizations may help to establish
                 effective work teams that are better able to achieve their goals and objectives by understanding and addressing these
                 aspects.

                        Networking Skills


                 Networking means getting to know people, staying in touch over time and using knowledge or skills to help each other.
                 The networking skills include two very important skills:
                 a.   Listen in good faith and
                 b.  Ask thoughtful questions
                 Listening carefully shows that you respect what others are saying. When you ask a thoughtful question, you show that
                 you are interested in the opinions of others and you are building trust in your relationship. Both parties must gain to
                 maintain a good relationship (individual or business).

                 Advantages of Networking
                 Following are the advantages of networking:

                    •  Networking helps you find trusted friends.
                    •  Sharing your expertise and skills can help a friend or neighbour to prepare for an interview.
                    •  Networking makes it easy to seek help during difficult times. For example, you can ask a friend to help you complete
                     a school project or accompany you to the hospital for a medical test.
                    •  Networking helps notify and be notified of new opportunities- for example, you can ask your neighbours/parents’
                     friends to help you find a part-time summer job at their workplace.
