Building a successful business is all about the art of collaboration, and harnessing the varied and empowering talents of others in order to build strength. With this in mind, Lucinda welcomes Deb Mashek, the author of 'Collabor(h)ate', to explore the importance of effective collaboration, and how we can work to create a culture that encourages rather than divides.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Some are more naturally collaborative than others, and seek to work alone. We should reframe it as a resource for sharing, rather than a divisive experience.
• When looking at collaborative individuals, there are three parts to consider - skill-sets, positives mindsets regarding collaboration, and historical learnings.
• Interdependence is the extent to which our outcomes are dependent on other people's behaviours. This is about how work is structured measured and rewarded.
• To move projects forward, we have to figure out what we're trying to do, which voices we're generally hearing from, and making sure that we're including others who don't usually get heard.
