There is actually a secret to build a team with true team spirit in SFI and can not be done overnight.
Affiliates of SFI comes from 197 countries and when come together as a team, their individuality doesn't suddenly evaporate. They got diversified ages, cultures, different personalities, skills, hopes, fears. However, these factors are not hindrance to a team. To build a true team spirit, you as their team leader should recognize these differences, appreciate them and use them to the advantage of your team. Treat your team mates differently and thinks that they are very important.
To lessen the gap of differences, create a sound environment of communication with your team mates and create as well a common shared sense of purpose. We were asked to create an advertising coop for our team. Let this be common to our team mates by sharing the cost, ideas and creativity on how to go about it, and share everything benefit and losses the team may derived from the created coop. Set a team deadline to meet your common goal and emphasize the importance of everyone's contribution to the success of your advertising campaign. Since this is a shared coop, let each member of your team responsible for the advertising coop so there is no one to blame if it fails. If in case your team lost, try again and create another one until you finally succeed.
Let them feel you are around and do care on their progress. Let them feel free to reach you anytime they need your assistance. When you see them log in, have a chat and assist them earn VersaPoints. Give them some tips that would cost them lesser. This would build trust between yourselves. Sometimes, you need to assist them locate the links especially when they are new comers.

Let this standing order the standard for being an Executive Affiliate, a rank higher than an Affiliate. With this they would begin to see the progress they are making and changes in themselves as well.
