I believe that to be successful in the business world
of today and tomorrow leaders in enterprises, organizations and collaborative ventures will need to rapidly acquire 3 new skills in the field of collaboration:
- Building strong communities quickly around their Projects and Causes.
- Effective indirect action (by engaging Stakeholders and External Parties).
- Mastering Network Communications by understanding network dynamics to communicate with and influence your network in the most effective way.
I believe that one of the most effective ways to learn these new skills quickly is through facilitator-directed hybrid (computer/workshop) business games such as my
Collaboration Trilogy series.
