Monkey standing on Elephant's back to reach fruit from a tree - not a Teampedia activity. Yet a beloved folktale in Bhutan, “The Four Harmonious Friends," is a perfect inspiration for cooperation to achieve common goals. Bird plants a seed; Rabbit waters it; Monkey fertilizes it. Elephant protects the sprouting tree. Standing on top of each other, the friends reach and share the tree's fruit. See Teampedia's [[:Category: Collaboration|Collaboration]] activities

Monkey standing on Elephant's back to reach fruit from a tree - not a Teampedia activity. Yet a beloved folktale in Bhutan, “The Four Harmonious Friends," is a perfect inspiration for cooperation to achieve common goals. Bird plants a seed; Rabbit waters it; Monkey fertilizes it. Elephant protects the sprouting tree. Standing on top of each other, the friends reach and share the tree's fruit. See Teampedia's Collaboration activities
