About My Approach To Team Communitacion & Interaction

•    Generally I don't make personal bounds with team members or take team member's actions personally  .  

• But if I'am with the likeminded people we would catch an synergy, an friendship naturally .   

• In workplace order & hierarchy is important for me . I know I should work with others & give ideas , help when they need me & listen when they gave their ideas about topic but naturally I expect the same respect from people . 

• When I working from home , meeting with teammates or meeting with realife I try to not interrupt my teamates when they are speaking unless there is a urgent issue .

• I always ask do my teammates are they need for any help  

• If my teammate needs help I try to help him . I hate to putting all work on other people's shoulders , relax and don't help them . I hate poeple like that .

• I believe if our game is success its our success not just 1 persons. It was successfull because of right decisions our team made , right ammount of efforts & our hardworking , our good , supporting , tolerant & respectfull character , using right tools & methods & harmony in our team & finally we were successfull because we could touch the feelings & desires of our audience.  

• I try to help special needs people in my team . Assist them in their task if required help them in special conditions 

• I love animals in workspace .
