Problem
External CollaborationBusiness agility is dependent on collaboration with customers, prospects, partners and suppliers “outside the company walls” to ensure that companies are developing the right products to meet market needs.
Internal CollaborationTraditional approaches to solving enduring problems, where top-level management makes decisions without input from a larger group are insufficient. “ROI” and “Rational” approaches are failing and distributed workers want to be involved in all aspects of decision making.

Why We Do It
Companies that collaborate effectively generate 3x product success rate and 2x market share advantage.
US businesses incur $38 B in annual costs due to ineffective meetings.
Wasting time & talent directly contributes to employee dissatisfaction, accounting for another $500 B annually.

So, what’s Collaboration?
Collaboration is a recursive process where two or more people or organizations work together in an intersection of common goals — for example, an intellectual endeavor that is creative in nature—by sharing knowledge, learning and building consensus.
