Community @ Work
All permanent staffs in my company are going to sit for our annual engagement survey which is called Q12. Basically, there’s this American company called Gallup which conducts these survey. It’s to measure how engaged are the employees of the surveyed company.
It’s so important to the company that they’ve many sessions on understanding the questions. They even have a mock Q12 so that the management can do a temperature check.
Results came out of this mock survey and my team got the highest of all the teams in our company. The senior manager of the division, of which my team belongs, attribute this to the fact that my team is one of the pioneer teams when the company started 2 years ago. So, we understand the questions really well. However, I think it’s more than that. I attribute it to more of the team being community rather than individualism which is pre-dominant in the rest of the teams with regards to our work.

Indeed, with all this emphasis on individual competence which is important, I think it's even more important that a sense of community is present so it becomes a synergized effort ... all "yoked" together moving the same direction and enjoying the scenary at the same time! :-) congrats and cool thoughts
