It has been a very busy couple of weeks for me, so it has been awhile since my last post, but I am back.
I love being part of a team, sharing new ideas, learning new skills from other team members, collaborating, brainstorming, etc etc the list just goes on.
As a marketing / personal assistant I enjoyed being part of a sales team and an admin team, working with others to ensure all the "cogs in the wheel" work in harmony to achieve the company’s goals. I learn't so much from so many people, about the importance of TEAMWORK.

Not everyone is cut out to be a team player, but I do believe it is a skill we all need to learn to do. As an individual we cannot be good at everything, or enjoy doing everything. Being part of a team we can do the tasks we enjoy and leave the ones we don’t enjoy to those who do.
