It has been said that coming together is a beginning, keeping together is a progress, and working together is success. That is one of the most appropriate definitions of teamwork as it relates to The Keller Pointe. Each of us has specific roles and responsibilities outlined in our job descriptions. Each of us understands the value and importance of our members. So, just how do we work together?

First of all, it's important to understand that, in a sense, each of us share the job duties of every other employee. That doesn't mean our building maintenance staff is qualified to be lifeguards, but, it's crucial to understand everyone's role. In football, the quarterback can't get the ball to the wide receiver unless the offensive line does its job well. That's teamwork.

The Pointes of Excellence revolve around teamwork. Teamwork is diligence, pride, cooperation, understanding and, most importantly, communication.
