Collaboration - its critical to success, but do you know how to lead it effectively? Working in flatter, more complex work environments often requires us to be more collaborative in our leadership approach. But collaboration can be time-consuming, inefficient and even ineffective. So how do you know when to collaborate and how best to lead a collaborative effort? How do you get support from people on different teams who have competing priorities? Here is the presentation from our webinar on The Art of Collaborative Leadership. You can view the webinar at https://cmcoutperform.com/on-demand-events (available April 3. 2020)
