COLLABORATION

Are organisational silo's holding you back?

Are you ready to break free and unlock new levels of creativity and productivity?

Remember, regardless of our business function, we all work for the same organisation with the same business strategy and goals. Harness the untapped power of collaboration and build a networked organisation.

Networked organisations think and work differently.

They play on the same team and break down traditional barriers to optimise diversity of technical expertise, experience and thought, delivering innovative new solutions and powerful business outcomes that just couldn't be conceived in isolation.

Here are my six strategies for building a networked organisation:

1. Play on the same team

 

Forget where things traditionally start and end. Join together to co-create the exceptional.

2. Take a holistic view

 

Bring teams together to collaborate with diversity of functional expertise, experience, background and thought.

3. Data drives a path to success

 

Collate data across teams and functions. Determine your baseline and track back against it to measure business impact.

4. Think big but start small

 

Shape your ultimate networked vision and start with small pilots, bring teams together to collaborate then test, learn, iterate.

5. Seek out untapped talent

 

Keep your eyes open for talent hidden in unexpected places, then develop, nurture and grow through cross functional projects, mentoring and and working groups.

6. Be a rule breaker

 

Teams and functions who wouldn’t traditionally align can create unexpected value when enabled to work together. Forget the rules and create your own.
