Collaborative Skills, Leadership, and Specialist Roles

Chapter 9 in Collaborative Advantage, 2006, pp 127-139 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract It should be clear by now that collaborative working is much more of an art than a science. Moving between tasks and relationship building, balancing individual motivation with organizational agendas, building consensus, handling conflict, considering strategic issues and then nittygritty detail—all of this requires the skills of a consummate diplomat, an expert project manager, a visionary leader, and a marriage guidance counsellor all rolled into one. Needless to say, it is unusual to find the full range of capability in one individual. However, one of the advantages of collaborative working is that a balanced team of partners is likely to cover every major capability required.
