Summarizing 10 years of Collaboration Writings/Findings

I have been writing about collaboration for almost 15 years online. Initially through a personal site and then a blog. In the spirit of advancing collaboration, I wrote a Kindle and Paperback book that condenses some of the research – on Amazon now.

If you are looking for something, please use our Google Search of the site. 

Here is a summary:

  • Everyone always wants to know what cool collaboration companies are out there. Many of these don’t exist anymore, but some have become Unicorns since we first wrote about them.
  • How about a couple hundreds sites on visual thinking
  • Hungry for some cooler than normal articles on collaboration
  • Everyone loves a good list of collaboration tools  
  • Why not heavy duty collaboration research lists 
  • One of my favorites: people analytics, people data, data science for better collaboration
  • Teamwork might be overused, but there is a lot to read 
  • Community (ies) is probably the buzzword of the 2010s, but few others combine data and art like these posts 
  • Can’t forget about virtual collaboration 🙂 
  • Collaboration ideas are cheap, but starting with great ones can’t hurt 
  • Culture talk will soon go out of style, but for now it is every execs favorite collaboration topic 
  • No matter what you do, you got to market(ing) it a little bit
  • Where would collaboration be without collaborative throughs on social media? 
  • So much improvement in collaboration is about tracking people or thinks. Worth learning do decide your approach. 
  • Lots about meetings and well, er, lack of collaboration most likely 
  • Don’t forget about events and conferences… and the potential that one day they will be collaborative. 
  • Why not make the environment of collaboration better with all these trinkets (there is some really cool stuff in here!) 
  • Artificial intelligence for collaboration is getting smarter (or is it?) 
  • Process can help a lot (if you take a systems view) 
  • And collaboration methodologies can make or break your work (but don’t fall in love with your own)
