Why read it?

1 author picked Collaboration Is the New Competition as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Even the smartest person in the room is limited in intelligence, creativity, and experience. Solving problems in today’s complex and volatile business environment requires more than maximizing individual effort and output–it requires collaboration.

I love this book because it demystifies the collaborative process and provides practical strategies that prioritize teamwork, creativity, and shared success. Effective collaborators care about the well-being of their co-creators, are open and willing to share information and revel in collective rather than individual outcomes.

For those who seek to adopt the collaborative mindset, the book points the way to harnessing the power of networks and relationships…

From Charles' list on collaborative innovation.
