Team Work	I will use this skill to motivate others to ensure that everyone’s opinion is heard, everyone’s strengths are highlighted and to create good team spirit.	I know this skill as i am constantly in a team environment because I am a member of the hockey team, netball team and cadets where I regularly have to work collaboratively with others.
