The ideal team works in an environment where healthy relationships are nurtured. Strong leadership is essential, but a strong team is dependent upon every member. Trust, shared responsibilities and good communication within the team is essential. Each team member must be encouraged to be able to find his or her appropriate expression, and contribution.
The functional family is a team which symbolizes the ideal of human interdependence, and has long provided a firm foundation for society. The healthy family is a microcosm of society and the native soil in which ethical values take root and grow. Fertilize this soil, and the whole of society benefits.
