This session focused on collaboration as a key component of social change. It began with a recap of prior sessions on leadership models and social change. The document then defined collaboration as working together toward common goals by sharing responsibility, authority, and accountability. It discussed how collaboration differs from competition, cooperation, and compromise in focusing on achieving common rather than individual goals. The session explored how diversity enhances collaboration and the prerequisites for effective collaboration, including developing trust and clarifying goals. An interactive game was used to demonstrate the importance of trust and collaboration over competitive behaviors.

beliefs as well as developing
Consciousness of Self
21. MAKING IT WORK
• Building Trust

29. The purpose of the game
To create an awareness of:
• The importance of trust and how trust can be
lost - particularly the fact that trust is
relational, it is affected by what happens
BETWEEN people not simply by what one
side does;
• The effects of competitive behaviour on the
possibilities for collaboration;
30. The purpose of the game
• The importance of clarifying goals in advance
and getting trust and collaboration from all
concerned at the outset.
• Experiences and feelings that are hard to talk
about but important to recognise as factors in
creating effective collaboration.
• How important is trust and what damages it?
• How often do we behave as if others have to
lose for us to win? In what situations? Why?
How can learn to recognise opportunities for
'win-win' solutions?
