on importance of jelled-in teams
One of things I learned from Dr. Fakhar was that a brilliant individual cannot achieve the same level of success as a team of motivated & jelled-in individuals. Maulana Muhammad Ali Johar was one of the greatest personalities and visionaries of the sub-continent but he could not make an impact as big as other great leaders of his time, just because he had no team. He was a perfectionist and expected the same from others. All those who worked for him always fell short of his expectations and towards the last years of his life he could not find people willing to work for him.
One of the basic mistakes Team Leaders make is to compare the time & quality of their junior’s work with the same level (of time & quality) had they done the same work. They fail to understand the basic fact that their junior is their junior just because he does not have the same level of expertize & experience as they do, otherwise he would have been at their position.

One of things I learned:
Teams jell-in only when they set the right expectations from each others.
