The Avengers introduced the world with a bunch of
superheroes. Each has their unique abilities, motivations, and sparkling
personalities. And the most important lesson they have spread across is how to
get along and function as a team, where collective heroics are celebrated over
individual exploits!
The Avengers, they don’t just teach us about teamwork, but
the value of teams themselves.
Being part of a team is not enough, especially when you’re
used to being a solo contributor and think that the work revolves around you.
But if a super soldier, a spy, a playboy, a god, a giant green rage monster,
and all other extremely gifted and naturally human with the most common set of
abilities can come together and kick out of the most dangerous of situations,
then you can too.
Knowing how to be both part of a team and successful on a
team is a fundamental skill everyone should learn.
1. KNOW YOUR ROLE
If you have ever played football, or for the fact, have ever
watched any game, you must have noticed that not all payers are able to perform
at all positions. Each of them has a particular strength and they know where
they need to be as the game unfolds.
Being good at something is not enough – knowing when, where,
how your skills can benefit your team is the key. Each team member should be
aware of each other’s strengths and weaknesses so that when the time comes, you
should be prepared work as a team to complete the task.
This is very much like the Avengers. Each member
of the team serves a different purpose. At macro level, Iron Man is the brain,
Hulk is all about anger management and muscle power, Captain America is the
moral builder,… everyone is known for their own set of skills and abilities,
but none of them could have defeated an army of Ultron’s if they would have
fought on their own.
