Overview
An organization exists because the tasks which it sets itself are beyond the ability of a single individual to accomplish on his own. For any organization to accomplish its tasks, the people must work together. Hence, amongst the members of an organization, teamwork and co-operation is critical. In order for any organization to get the most from its people, they must all pull in the same direction.
