Teams need to have certain ingredients in order to be able to achieve their goals.
What I love about this cartoon is that it shows that a team can achieve an outcome, but without certain key ingredients, and in this case, I would have to say, communication is the main missing ingredient, the outcome they achieve is less than satisfactory.
Communication, planning and checking everyone is on the same page just may have saved this team the added grief of having to fix the problem and redo the job.
A successful team needs a number of ingredients in order to collaborate together to get the best outcome – what ingredients do you think are most important?
