COLLABORATION“is a process through which parties who see different aspects of a problem can constructively explore their differences and search for solutions that go beyond their own limited vision of what is possible.”
Gray, 1989

Lack of knowledge or negative perceptions of the “other” culture
Limited perceptions of our own subculture

WHAT CAN WE DO TO IMPROVE COLLABORATION?
• Increase awareness of our own “mental models” – those we have about our own subculture and those we have about the other subculture.
• Learn about the other subculture.
• Build interpersonal relationships.
