− “I definitely think we are on our way to becoming that (a team)!” − “The business needs it (being a team), but as an individual I also need it.

Absolutely, it’s a lot of fun to work in a team.” − “We are a team that has achieved and celebrated successes, but we have also cried together …. That is building teams over time.” |
