Teamwork is second on the list of skills employers are looking for, according to the results of a survey from the National Association of Colleges and Employers.

Teamwork is like a symphony as the music from each instrument played by an individual combines into a beautiful outpouring. Another example of teamwork is the combined efforts of the ground team and astronauts for a common goal in the movie “Apollo 13.”

Some practical ways to learn teawork are to participate in a team sport or join a club.
