I’ve learned some pretty good benefits of collaboration that have helped me over the past few years including;
Working with others to achieve a common goal.
Mutually beneficial to all, everyone contribute to the results, everyone gains from the experience
Sharing of knowledge
Learning and growing together
Problem solving powers multiply
Different views and ideas
Brainstorming
More options from honest feedback
Gain consensus to obtain the best approach
Once you understand the Why (the benefits) of collaborating, what can you collaborate on?
Specifically, Win/Win/Win situations where telegram data everyone involved would benefit from the results of the collaboration.
Determine what qualities and characteristics your collaborative partners should have. Find people with the same core values as you.
Other things that competent team members have;
The essential skills and abilities to conduct the work
A strong desire to contribute
Motivation
Passion
Willingness to learn
The ability to collaborate effectively
Commitment to the effort
Unity – group spirit and teamwork are indispensable to superior performance
Collaborative partners need to be good communicators and be able to get their ideas across to others both verbally and in writing.
I like an article I read in Inc. Magazine on 6 Traits of Great Leaders. Here are a few of my notes.
Caring. Good leaders care.
They surround themselves with smart people.
They demand accountability.
They inspire others.
By putting together a list of people you can collaborate with you will be able to increase your influence by reaching a much larger audience than if you were working alone.
