Right mix of individual talents - Team

A team is to put use the diverse talent for achieving a synergistic effect. The 'diverse talent' of a team here means the right mix of individual talents.

Creativity, drive, coordination and analytical abilities are the individual talents that should have the right proportion for a team.

People with creativity identifies new opportunities and makes best use of them. Also they encourage other people to imagine and produce new ideas.

People with drive possess the strength to convert plans into reality. They excel at organizing work. They ensure that the work gets done smoothly by finding practical solutions to problems.

People with coordination encourage people come together, share ideas and work towards a common goal. In other words they promote good team atmosphere.

People with analytical abilities would evaluate situations and think about possible choices. I.e. They make good judgment and thus prevent costly mistakes from happening.

So while constituting a team, people should be chosen such that team has the right mix of individual talents.
