TQM - Total Quality ManagementAre You A. Good Team Member?

If you have ever played a team sport, then youshould know there are good players, good teamplayers, poor players and poor team players, to men­tion just a few categories.

A person can be a good player without being a goodteam player. This is evidentin many sports we watch onTV. The quarterback candecide to keep the ball andrun with it, even though weall see an open pass receiverfar downfield. The basket­

ball player can decide to tryfor the shot himself (or her­self), rather than passing iton to a teammate who is ina better position. Theseplayers may score, under­scoring the fact that they aregood players (on an individ­ual basis, that is), and yetmany coaches wouldn'twant them on their teams.

Instead, they want good team players - people willingto sacrifice personal acclaim for the good of the team.

Are you a good Librascope team member? You areif you:

1) Know what is to be accomplished by the team ­Furthermore, you should inform other team mem-

bers of the team's goals if they are in the dark.2) Help determine how the goal should be accomplished ­Input from everyone is needed at this stage. Yourcontribution is important.3) Share in the mutual respect of your team members ­

You've got to be willing totrust the skill and expertise ofother group members and tobecome interdependent, for­saking perhaps your ownindependence to do so.4) Share in group decision­making - To be a teammember is a responsibility.Some people like to sit on thesidelines and remain silent,so they can later say, if thingsfail, "I told you so." Goodteam members don't do that.

They are committed at theoutset ... and willing toexpose their thoughts andfeelings, for all to view. It

takes courage to be a good team player.S) Share the glory with others - You'll make a poorteam member if you try to cop all the glory for ideasthat work, and backpeddle on the team's failures. Agood team shares the glory.

It isn't easy to be a good team player - and it won'talways be noticed that you are. But you'll know! •
