TEAMWORK “Competition has been shown to be useful up to a certain point and no further, but cooperation, which is the thing we must strive for today, begins where competition leaves off.” Franklin D. Roosevelt “Problems can become opportunities when the right people come together. ” Robert Redford “Society is joint action and cooperation in which each participant sees the other partner's success as a means for the attainment of his own.” Ludwig von Mises
