Whether in sports, marriage, at work or other areas of life, teamwork is often crucial to achieving an end result. It is also a great way to bond and strengthen relationships between those involved through communication and a better understanding of each other’s role. More often than not, it is rewarding when hard work between two individuals or a group accomplishes a set goal.
Recently, I attended a MIA+BSI New York Metro Chapter event, which was hosted by Atlas Marble and Granite in Springfield, NJ. The event included two sessions, which each earned participants one CEU credit. In the session entitled “Partnering with Natural Stone Countertop Fabricators & Distributors for Increased Sales,” Marco Duran of Atlas Marble and Granite and Buddy Ontra of
Ontra Stone Concepts in Bridgeport, CT, explained to a group of architects and designers the importance of teamwork when working on a stone design. “The relationship between you and us is really important so expectations are clear and met,” said Duran.
