Teamworking skills

Teamworking is not just about working co-operatively to get a job done. It means the ability to engage with people on a personal level, in a professional setting and build good interpersonal relationships at all levels.

The Confederation of British Industry (CBI) definition of teamworking includes:

  • being able to respect others
  • co-operating
  • negotiating and persuading
  • contributing to discussions
  • awareness of interdependence with others

See the Evidencing teamworking skills guide for help with where you can find examples to demonstrate these areas.
