Adequate communication is always needed in any place of work. To work in a team it is vital that all team members agree with each other on a daily basis. Work groups alter in their workload, and in the way they are protected. Also people who make up the team each have needs that must be met in order to keep team efficiency. One way of looking at this is to analyze the features of a team; teams have a chance to speak out and should be able to do so. All teams need to listen to what is being said. No one will ever be put down for their continuing ideas to the group. Conflicts that develop are talked about without people getting mad. There will be rules that are made by each team member, the rules are adjustable and can easily be changed when agree upon. Every team member keeps to the set of rules; everyone understands and aims for the goal for the team. The workload within the team is shared accordingly. No one will dominate the team and try to make decisions for the team based on an agreement; everyone is prepared to accept what decision is made.

A good listener listens to every thing that is being said by the other person. A lot people really do not know how to communicate. Instead, they just take turns talking, which sometimes gets no one, no where. Some people may behave like that are listening, but actually just try to think of the next thing that they want to say.

Keeping quiet, both in the body and mind, is the best necessity for adequate listening that leads to everyone understanding.
