Teamwork! That magical thing where everything just worksโ€ฆ right?

Letโ€™s unpack some timeless truths we somehow still believe:

1. "The more, the merrier!"
Yes, because nothing says efficient collaboration like 14 people on one Zoom call all trying to unmute at once. More people = more productivityโ€ฆ said no project manager ever.

2. "We must all agree before we proceed."
Perfect! Letโ€™s wait 3 more weeks while Sarah disagrees out of principle and Tom "just feels uneasy." Who needs momentum when you have consensus?

3. "If there's conflict, something's wrong."
Absolutely. Letโ€™s avoid all disagreement and innovation so we can stay comfortably mediocre forever.

4. "One strong leader will fix everything."
Of course! Everyone else should just watch and nod. Who needs shared ownership when you have one overworked hero?

In truth, effective teamwork isnโ€™t about size, harmony, or hierarchy. Itโ€™s about clarity, psychological safety, and a shared commitment to results. Get that rightโ€”and the rest follows.
