Closing Thoughts Partnering vs. Partnership Teamwork Golden Rule 46
Partnering vs. Partnership Partnering a process Partnership an attitude 47
Partnership Common thread of all successful jobs => Partnership type attitude by all parties Work together in cooperative manner in the best interest of the project Recognizing and respecting the needs of the other partners Must occur at every level in each organization & Within each individual associated with the project 48
Teamwork: Key to Success 49
50 Successfully Completed Project
The Golden Rule Misconception: The Golden Rule IS NOT He, who has the Gold, rules Remember to Treat the Contractor or Owner (or anyone else) as you would like to be treated if the positions were reversed. Fairly and Equitably 51
