In the digital age, how well our teams collaborate can make or break our organization. Ed Hess shares some behaviors to look for�and some you�d better hope you don�t see. Why collaboration matter is a no-brainer. As skill sets become increasingly specialized and business gets more complex, multiple people must work together to problem-solve, innovate, and do all the other tasks technology can�t. (It goes without saying this needs to happen quickly.) But what we may not realize is that great collaboration isn�t just a meeting of minds. It�s a meeting of the minds, hearts, and souls. Ed Hess says it is that meeting of the minds, hearts, and souls that enables the highest level of collaboration, which is called �collective intelligence.� Achieving this result is highly dependent upon how �human� your workplace is.
