Habit #6 - Synergize!
Summary: Work together to achieve more
I value other people’s strengths and learn from them. I get along well with others, even people who are different than me. I work well in groups and seek out other ideas because I know that by teaming with others, we can create better solutions.
How can you Synergize?
Help clean up after dinner. Work with others to plan a fun family night.
