Introduction

Wageman (1997) describes a team as a group of people focused on achieving similar goals and objectives for the benefit of their clients and customers while delivering good quality of service.2 Teamwork can be said to be the process of working collaboratively with a group of individuals to achieve a set target.

Teamwork is as old as mankind. Even in the time of creation, God applied the concept of teamwork when he said, “Let us make man in our image” (Gen 1:26 KJV). This statement connotes that God engaged the heavenly bodies in the making of man.

There is a growing consensus among researchers that although organisations can get work done using individual talents, its super achievement is getting goals accomplished via teams. It is a well-known fact that teamwork is not only the foundation of all successful managements, but the means of improving overall results in organizational productivity.
