Description: Collaboration lies at the heart of why we have organizations. Understanding how to motivate and shape collaboration lies at the core of leadership in organizations. Foundational to collaboration is shared understanding: Individuals and teams can only effectively work together when they have the same understanding of what they are trying to achieve, how they will do so, and what the roles of different individuals and teams in that process are. In this course, we explore the importance of such shared understanding for successful collaboration and how leadership can build shared understanding for high-quality performance.
