Let me just say first of all, we are loving that Summer is right around the corner. That said, the sun is shining on a lot more collaboration areas lately, and are keeping us pretty busy with keeping up with these fantastic authors, analysts and bloggers!
So when it comes to team collaboration, what solutions do you use in your business? Are you already using a an online collaboration solution like OnePlace? Or still in the past using email to “collaborate” with your team? Somewhere in between? That’s what this week’s posts have been about - the wide spectrum of ways you can collaborate with your team.

Now you know what to focus on to get your collaboration back on track.
Going Back to (Collaboration) Basics - The basics of collaboration is successful organization. This post from Talent Culture shares tips for organizing your collaboration efforts, but also shares a tip for using email to collaborate better.

4 Tips for Improving Client Collaboration - Strikingly similar to our post on increasing client collaboration, the Agilewords Blog post shares different ways to make client collaboration more effective.

Reasons You May Find Collaboration Challenging - This is a post from us on E2.0 Pros, and states that one of the greatest challenges to moving forward with collaboration is that the business doesn’t know what tools to use and which are best.
