It's like a marriage. . . We really got a sense that all the teacher liked one another and had respect for their collegues. The team also made us feel like they enjoyed being a team and felt personal satisfaction from being a team member. There are a variety of things that can be credited for the existing cohesiveness.
Communication is important any time groups of people work together.
Our team appears to have very open communication. In the team meeting we observed, everyone participated and contributed to the meeting. In our observations, we never witnessed an instances of conflict, although it is very unlikely that conflict has never been experienced. If and when it has, the team has obviously been able to resolve it and move on. In communicating, the team is also able to support, encourage, advise, and congradulate one another.
