“To become a collaborative team player . . . •Think win-win-win. King Solomon of ancient Israel observed, “Iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.”3 Usually when you collaborate with others, you win, they win, and the team wins. Find someone on the team with a similar role whom you have previously seen as a competitor. Figure out ways you can share information and work together to benefit both you and the team.”
