Issue 34
People work more productively in teams than individually, teamwork requires cooperation, which motivate people much more than individual competition does.


Even though many people say that teamwork is more productive than working individually because the former motivates people more. I do not agree on this kind of point of view at all. The way people works affect the productivity a lot and working individually promotes the cooperatively more than within a team.

Some people just like being alone doing a certain kind of work, and they could do their best when promoted with individual competition. Take my elder sister as an example; she is a shy girl without many words in public place and she dose have creative thoughts and she can do very well on some assignment alone. But if she were asked to do the work with teammates, she would feel uneasy and put more attention on dealing with people rather than on doing the work assigned. And another reason for her inkling to work individually is that she finds it is more challenging to gain personal achievement and to ascertain that she is something. That means individual competition motives her more than cooperation does.

Beside the case applies to my sister, there is another possibility that the productivity decrease when many people working in a team. In that situation some people will rely on other teammates more and more when he has someone to rely on. I figured it out not long ago when i had an assignment to go through with other five teammates. Everything went on well when we were doing separately; but when it processed to the stage that we working together, conflicts come up immediately. Some one ‘cooperated’ so much that he even gave up his own responsibility and relied too much on the result of others'.

What's more, the worst aspect is that team cooperation asks for compromise that represses the free mind of the members in the team. As we know that some outstanding novel concepts come along when the father of the concept is alone. I can not imagine how Isaac Newton would eventually proof that he was right to think about the seemingly silly question: why the apple falls downwards? What if he failed to persuade his teammates to work with him? What if the flash thinking dismissed by the opponents? As we all know that new ideas promote the productivity; but the paradox is that new ideas face difficulty on their birth in team works.

Some people may argue that the more brains the clever the group will be. For instance, when facing a problem and each teammate make up one prospective solution, a team may have as many solutions as the number of the people in the team; while if one was working on it alone, he might have no choice at all.  They deduce that the cooperation promotes productivity more. I have to claim that working alone does not mean that a person is isolated totally form the others, and he may be working by himself most of the time and consult others occasionally, which could help solving problems and overcoming bottlenecks.

It is obvious that working individually is not just the acclamatory strategy taken mere by introverted people who like being alone. Individual work asks for more responsibility and individual thinking when one have no one else to rely on, thus one is fully forced to make full use of his or her time and talent. And in some other cases when a new idea is on its birthday, individual work may be the only way to bring it to the world. To summarize that it is wise to work individually rather than in a team.
life is unpredictable.

我觉得你在倒数第二段提到“I have to claim that working alone does not mean that a person is isolated totally form the others, and he may be working by himself most of the time and consult others occasionally, which could help solving problems and overcoming bottlenecks. ”那么应该在最后一段有所反映,否则感觉最后一段有一点绝对。

我也是刚写作文,说的可能有错,希望斑竹来看看。
