Definition of Collaboration
Posted by Dana Larson on July 06, 2010
With so much communication about team collaboration and business collaboration lately, there are some that are curious, but don’t know exactly what it is. So, from Wikipedia, the free, online collaborative encyclopedia, here is the definition of collaboration.
“Collaboration is a recursive process where two or more people or organizations work together in an intersection of common goals”
Collaboration can be accomplished in a business setting when a team is working together toward the same outcome. You are collaborating when...
...you are working on a project with other team members
...you are brainstorming on new tactics to execute
...you are sharing information back and forth on business news
...you are planning updates to business processes
...you are planning a work holiday party or happy hour event
There is more collaboration that happens in a business than is typically titled “collaboration”, but once you can identify those collaborative instances, you can learn how to maneuver them effectively to achieve the best outcome possible.
