All employers are keen to recruit employees who can cooperate, solve problems and work in teams. As less hierarchical organisations have emerged with project teams, self-managed work teams and management teams, so the requirements to 'Get on well with people', and to 'Work with and through others' become increasingly important. Teamwork involves working confidently within a group, contributing your own ideas effectively, taking a share of the responsibility, being assertive - rather than passive or aggressive, accepting and learning from constructive criticism and giving positive, constructive feedback to others.

Dual Self Model

It has been observed that there is a heightened level of competition among students based on habits of comparing oneself with others (e.g. via LinkedIn, Insta, and other social media) rather than focusing on personal achievements. This creates an individual deficit model. It seems related to the dual-self model in behavior psychology where students appear to place themselves in constant deficit to their dual self. Critical reflection and awareness can help towards mitigating negative effects.
