Overview

""...reveals how we can earn trust, repair relationships, and create collaborations that bring out the best in us.""Adam Grant, #1 New York Times bestselling author of THINK AGAIN and host of the TED podcast WorkLife Many people have mixed feelings about workplace collaboration. On the one hand, they know collaboration is essential to achieve complex goals. On the other hand, they know collaboration is a slog. People pull in different directions. There's desperately little communication and even less follow through. One person ends up doing all the work. The result? Friction mounts. Projects fizzle. Great people walk. Here's why: very few of us ever receive any formal training in how to collaborate well. In Collabor(h)ate, Deb Mashek draws on her deep experience as a relationships researcher and collaboration facilitator to reveal everything you need to know to make workplace collaborations less painful and more productive. Dr Deb Mashek is an experienced business consultant, professor, higher education administrator, and national nonprofit executive. She applies behavioural science to help people collaborate better.
