If you studied Social Studies in junior secondary, you possibly memorized one of the advantages of partnerships. And that was – “joint hands in making management decisions”. We memorized those without understanding the implications. Then at senior secondary, the Economics teacher brought the concepts of division of labour and factors of production. Yes, expertise matters even at unit level but even that “risk taker” within the factors of production cannot achieve much without the “labour”. So, it comes down to building a working team in that firm.
When a company, when a society, when a family, when a nation,…work together as ONE Team, they outperform their individual best.
Usain Bolt ran the world’s best 9.58 seconds for 100 meters. But four Jamaicans ran the 4 x 100 meters relay at 36.84 seconds. If you run the numbers, each became better, running 100 meters, on average, at 9.21 seconds, when they ran together (do not go to the science of inertia and momentum). Simply, by running together, they beat the individual world’s 100 meters record.
