Recommendation

Organizations tend to mandate collaboration. But simply ordering people to work together is a futile approach, says organizational consultant Adam Kahane. Using several real-life, high-stakes scenarios, Kahane reveals that the secret to getting people to work together to create transformative change lies in a nuanced facilitation approach that removes obstacles to collaboration and embraces vertical and horizontal approaches. His instructive guidebook illustrates how facilitators can cultivate environments that allow transformative change to flow and flourish.

Take-Aways

  • Conventional approaches to collaboration often rely on force, which is an ineffective motivator.  
  • To foster collaboration, dismantle barriers to contribution, connection and equity.
  • The transformative facilitation model blends vertical and horizontal approaches.
