IF YOU HAD ONE DAY LEFT TO LIVE WHAT WOULD YOU DO?


On the last day of school, the children brought gifts for their teacher.

The florist’s son gave the teacher a bouquet of flowers.
The candy store owner gave the teacher a box of candies.
Then the liquor store owner’s son brought a big, heavy box.  The teacher lifted it up and noticed that it was leaking a little bit.
She touched a drop of the liquid with her finger and tasted it.
“is it wine?” she said.
“No.” the boy replied.
She tasted another drop and said “Champagne?”

Teams are made up of individuals, with different personalities and identities which eventually adds to the dynamics of it all.  Sometimes teams fail because of a lack of three very important characteristics:

1.)  A common goal
2.)  Interdependence
3.)  The agreement to work together
