I Recently Came Across Wonderful Note From Vineet Nayar In HBR Called – A Shared Purpose Drives Collaboration<\/p>\n
In an effort to improve collaboration, and to make it seem less forced and unnatural, companies spend a lot of money on new technology and training. But this approach doesn\u2019t get at the heart of great team work: a shared purpose. Collaboration can\u2019t be \u201cprocessed\u201d into being. It only works when leaders articulate the problem \u2014 along with the challenges and the goals. This is why the team at NASA worked so well together after the Apollo 13 crisis. Ditto on the Federal Aviation Authority during 9\/11. When leaders express the problem, the challenges, and the goal in clear, direct, and motivational language, great collaboration will result. Very true !<\/p>\n Indeed, I have always believed and quoted – Purpose Is Bigger Than Processes. Share Values Are Bigger Than Strategies.<\/p>\n I recollected the movie screening and discussion around Apollo 13. The central point was that crisis brought everyone together – everyone was working for the same goal. So whether it is crisis or a football match, collaboration is automatic when there is a shared purpose. And then everyone trusts each other, there is openness and communication is clearer. Leaders have to drive the vision and create the purpose for the organization.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I Recently Came Across Wonderful Note From Vineet Nayar In HBR Called – A Shared Purpose Drives Collaboration In an effort to improve collaboration, and to make it seem less forced and unnatural, companies spend a lot of money on new technology and training.
