I have studied in business both how to enhance it in groups and how to measure it objectively. My book “Getting the Most Out of Teams” details how these skills and processes. I love interaction so pls do so it fhe spirit moves you.

I am currently studying why people choose to be in collaborative teams and what evolutionary advantage such behavior provides. My gurus are Dawkins and Pinter.

In practice, the most important thing is to get the conversation started. Once it is started, it is easier to have it continued.

Thanks Fred, for mentioning this book. I didn’t read it, but found the key point of growing to be a collaborative leader (p. 165). All true statements, but what’s so different from general leadership? I mean, where makes collaboration so much difference on this points?

Again, I didn’t read the book, but I’m curious to your vision on the differences between collaborative leaders, and other leadership styles. And where does it differ with participative management?
