The family is as we have heard countless times the fundamental basis of society, it is here where we learn to have a life based on values, in this opportunity I want to deepen in the value of teamwork, which I consider is one of the main tools for a family to enjoy a healthy, happy and productive coexistence.
Encouraging teamwork in the family contributes to establish a culture of being able to successfully face the challenges that arise in family life. The family acquires the ability to overcome, adapt or manage the situations that life imposes on it, and learn from it, making the family stronger.
It is very important to propose activities that allow the development of autonomy in each of the members, such as taking care of their clothes, being attentive to their personal hygiene, among others, and also activities that encourage service to others, such as buying the newspaper, setting and clearing the table, watering the plants, cleaning the kitchen and common areas. The commitment in a family task should be considered something serious and personal, but it should be facilitated and made pleasant, we must collaborate so that it is seen as a sign of love.
A correct family organization and adequate distribution of activities is a means of love, personal improvement and family union.
Promoting teamwork in the family is a very important tool to generate a good environment and adequate relationships among the members, so they will feel that they are all part of the group and will want to go in the same direction. It is also a key factor to achieve great triumphs in the development of the family and personal development of each of the individuals that integrate it.
Here are some of the benefits of teamwork in the family:
- Encourages creativity: a good team originates extraordinary ideas and innovative solutions.
- Increases motivation: in situations of exhaustion or fatigue, belonging to a group can help motivate to meet the objectives. There will usually be one of the members who will encourage you to keep going.
- Effective communication is promoted: the opportunity to convey different opinions helps communication to be clear, direct and fluid.
- Increases efficiency: to form a team whose skills and strengths of each of the members complement each other will facilitate the activities to meet the objectives more quickly and making proper use of available resources.
- Develop a sense of belonging: it is essential that an individual feels part of his or her team. A team will not be completely well or reach its full potential as long as all its members do not feel part of the team, there must be an authentic sense of belonging to protect the group.
