Need and Teamwork

Teamwork “Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence wins championships.”-Michael Jordan. Having a group of people working on one goal is called Teamwork. Teamwork is a very important key needed in life in order to the door of success. Unless you have a poor team, then it’s just something that is holding you back.

Good teams make the most of individual talents.
