Teamwork
Team Vs. Group
A team is internally organized, with specific goals and usually with specific roles for the different members.
A group is just a collection of people with something in common, such as being in the same place or having a shared interest.
Teamwork
A teamwork is a joint action by a group of 2 or more people who come together to achieve a purpose. There is no magic formula for “building a team”. Teams are organic – they grow and change – so make use of the opportunities that change offers.
Teamwork Quotations
“Coming together is a beginning”.“Keeping together is progress”.“Working together is success”.“Talent wins games, but teamwork

great things, but we can all do small things, with great love, and together we can do something wonderful”.
