Solid teamwork will make it easier to delegate management tasks of the organization. However, to form a solid team that demand a high degree of management. The most important thing is that teamwork should be seen as a source of maids to be developed and nurtured just like other resources, which exist within the company.

Definition of TeamworkIn general, teamwork can be defined as a collection of individuals who work together to achieve goals. Collection of individuals has rules and a clear mechanism of action, and are dependent between each other. Therefore, a group of people who work in one room, even within a single project, not necessarily a teamwork. Moreover, if the group managed authoritarian factions arise in it, and the lack of interaction between group members.When a person is working in a group (team), there are two issues that arise. First there is a task (task) and an issue-related problems with the execution of the work. This is often a major topic of concern to the team. Second, is the process that occurs in the teamwork itself, such as how the mechanism of action or rule of a team as a unit of the company, the process of interaction in the team, and others. In other words, the process refers to the spirit of cooperation, coordination, and the procedures to be agreed upon all members, and other things that are useful to maintain harmonious relationships between individuals in a group. Regardless of the process, it is a teamwork will not have any value for the company and will only be a source of problems for the company in the formation of a teamwok. Conversely, if the process is in a group of people who work together, then their performance will increase, as will the support technically and morally.Why Teamwork Necessary?Teamwork is an excellent means of combining various talents and innovative solutions can provide a well-established approach. Besides the diverse skills and knowledge possessed by anggoya also a plus that makes teamwork more profitable than an individual who is brilliant though.A team can be seen as a self-regulating unit. The range of skills and knowledge of members and self "monitoring" shown by each team allowed to be given a task and responsibility. Even when a problem can be decided by one person alone, involving teamwork will provide several advantages. advantages are: first decision made jointly will increase the motivation of the team in the implementation. Second, a joint decision will be more easily understood by the team than simply relying on the decision of one person.When viewed from the perspective of the individual, with his entry into a group (team), then it will increase morale / motivation to achieve something feat that may never be achieved by the individual alone. This can happen because the team encourages each member to have the authority and responsibility so as to increase the price of each person.A Life Cycle Teamworkgeneral development of a team can be divided into 4 stages:• Forming, is the stage at which the members agreed to join our team. Since the newly formed group, each person carrying values, opinions, and how to work on their own. Conflict is rare, everyone still shy, timid, and often there are members who feel nervous. Groups tend not to choose a leader (except tean who had been chairman of the group first).• Storming, is the stage where the chaos grew in the team. Leaders who have been often questioned his ability and group members did not hesitate to replace leaders who deemed incapable. Factions begin to form, there is a conflict because of personal issues, all insisted the opinion of each. Very little communication occurs because each person would no longer be a listener and some do not want to speak publicly.• norming, is the stage in which individuals and sub-groups that exist in the team began to feel the benefits of working together and striving to prevent the team from being destroyed (dissolved). because the spirit of cooperation has begun to emerge, each member began to feel free to express their feelings and their opinions to all team members. Other than that, everyone started to be a good listener. Mechanism of action and a set of rules established and adhered to by all members.• Performing, this stage is the culmination point where the team has managed to build a system that enables it to be able to work productively and efficiently. At this stage the team success will be seen from the performance shown.Skills RequiredThere are two main skills that should be owned by members of a teamwork, namely:• Managerial skills (managerial skills), including the ability to make plans, set goals, monitor performance, monitor progress and ensure the work has been done correctly, and others.• Interpersonal skills (interpersonal skills), including the ability to communicate, respect others' opinions and the ability to establish interpersonal relationships with others.Marketing strategy is a set of goals and objectives, policies and rules that give direction to the marketing efforts from time to time on each level and location.

In other words, the activity of market segmentation divides the market into groups of buyers are distinguishable to the needs, characteristics, or behavior is different that might require separate products or marketing mix.The company divides the market into specific market segments where each segment is homogeneous. Differences wishes and desires of consumers is the main reason for holding the market segmentation.Companies or vendors classify some groups target marketing segments, namely the segmentation of consumer markets, industrial market segmentation, and the segmentation of international markets. The group market segment has different characteristics, so it requires its own way to handle it.Creating Consumer Market SegmentationThere is no single way to create a market segment.
