  In my last summer, i had a very successful experience about  other two of my friends floated a company in my home country. Which focus on medical consumable and equipment. During the teamwork of us, we trust each other and solve problems together. I enjoy the moment of when i work in this team. 
  At the beginning, we divided the category of work and the amount of work we need to finish one day. This will help us get used to the work efficiently, and will not be mess up. Then the company will have a system of process. What i be responsible part is the account management, such as the money paid to the manufactures and the money received from every hospital. 
  The other function we used just like Katzenbach and Smith mention that is communication with each other. Sometimes one of teammate have a problem which we never had, then the team need communication because sometimes different people will have different view when we need solve problems. If we can stand in different views then we probably can solve problem efficiently. In our team, we will have several meetings each day to talk about the process of our work and what problem need to be solved. This is one of reason why we become a high function team.
During the life, we are good friends and we know each other very well. When we work together, we encourage each other a lot. From my perspective, responsibility is very important for teamwork. Each of people's work build a chain of company, and the organization can not work normally without each chain.

    I would be interested in knowing what happened to the company since you had to leave. Did your friends bring in somebody else to take your place? And/or are they students too who also went back to college at the end of the summer?

    One of the issues with at a startup company is how to measure whether things are going early on. What factors say that performance is good? Dividing the work is one thing. Was there any revenue coming in at the time where that was to be divided too? If so, how did you do that?

    Sometimes it is actually better not to do business with friends, especially if the business doesn't go so well. Then people can get angry and blame others for the failures of the unit. Putting a long standing friendship at risk may not be worth it, especially with very close friends.

    I agree that responsibility is very important. But there is no guarantee that outcomes will be good even when everyone contributes mightily to the effort. Being a little bit lucky also helps.
