Embrace your team self. The person you know as an individual do-er may not be the person you are on a team.

The team will get what it needs, and you will discover something about yourself.

The leaders who work most effectively, it seems to me, never say "I". And that's not because they have trained themselves not to say "I". They don't think "I". They think "we"; they think "team". They understand their job to be to make the team function. They accept responsibility and don't sidestep it, but "we" gets the credit.
