Companywide collaboration focuses on how to get people residing in different units through the company to work together to solve problems that no expert, no matter how smart or hard working, could solve alone.

Increased Sales | Saved Cost | Improved Efficiency

Collaboration in companies can have a significant impact on financial returns through three mechanisms.

Collaboration is especially useful …

Taming Complexity

“When problems have many intertwined causes, or solutions require novel skills and materials, it’s critical to be able to bring a diverse group of people together to be productive. ”

Facing Ambiguity

“When the challenge being faced has unknown unknowns, and there isn’t a clear, structured path forward to find a solution.”

Getting Alignment

“When decisions span many types of people, getting them to participate helps build a shared understand of the situation and how to proceed.”

Engaging Employees

“When an organization needs to build camaraderie and a sense of mission, supporting collaborative work gets people more deeply engaged.”

Yes, three heroic men went to the moon; but it was a team of 400,000 people that put them there.

They were the flight directors, controllers, planners, engineers; the rocket designers and builders and technicians; the managers, supervisors, quality control and safety inspectors; the programmers, electricians, welders, seamstresses, gluers, painters, doctors, geologists, scientists, trainers, and navigators …

Learning is the process whereby knowledge is created through the transformation of experience. To learn from their experience, teams must create a conversational space where members can reflect on and talk about their experience together.

I firmly believe that the ability to learn from experience is one of the most important skills that a person can have. Effective reviewing (also known as ‘debriefing’) skills are at the heart of successful experience-based learning. Reviewing is for everyone. We all do it. It is how we learn, grow and develop.
