Habit 6- Synergize

Together is Better

• People who synergize understand that everyone has unique talents and the who is greater than the sum of its parts. They also work together to arrive at new and better alternatives.

Student Language

I value other people’s strengths and learn from them. I get along well with others, even people who are different from me. I work well in groups. I seek out other people’s ideas to solve problems because I know that by teaming with others we can create better solutions than any one of us alone. I am humble.

Ways to Practice Synergize:

• Write down three things that you are really good at. Write down three things that someone else you know is good at.

• Watch your favorite sports team play a game. Pay extra attention to how all of the players work together as a team.
