Work productively with people who have different skills, opinions, and working styles.
Teamwork is the ability to combine your effort with others toward a shared result, which includes sharing credit, resolving friction, and adjusting your working style to fit the group. Almost all real engineering work happens in teams, not in isolation.
Delivering what you committed to on time, so the rest of the team can plan around you.
Giving and receiving code review comments and project feedback without it becoming personal.
Adjusting to a teammate's working style or tooling preference instead of insisting on your own.
Treating the team's output as "ours" rather than keeping score of individual contributions.
During a semester project, a teammate kept pushing code directly to the main branch without review, breaking the build twice.
Instead of escalating it as a complaint, you set up a 10-minute call to walk them through the branch-and-pull-request workflow, and offered to review their first few PRs, which fixed the issue without conflict.
