Collaboration drives high performance

- A recent study from the Institute for Corporate Productivity found that companies which promote collaboration are five times as likely to be high performing. Why? By collaborating with others, different departments, other offices, even external sources, you can leverage people's skills and knowledge to achieve goals faster and more economically. I'm Lisa Bodell, author of "Kill the Company" and "Why Simple Wins". As CEO of FutureThink since 2003, we've helped people at Fidelity, IBM, and Proctor and Gamble discover the value of collaboration. In this course I'll share formulas for overcoming barriers to collaboration, incentivizing teams from across your company to work together, and proven techniques for building on other people's ideas. Whether you're a leader or individual contributor, you'll discover ways to create a collaborative culture or contribute to it. And when you finish the course you'll be fluent in techniques that build teamwork across your entire org and beyond. Let's get started.
