Congratulations and thank you to Carlos Valdes-Dapena; congratulations for cracking the code on fostering “High Performance Collaboration,” and thank you for so generously and clearly sharing it. I have been in the leadership and organizational development arenas for over forty years. My career spans several areas of endeavor: the military to include a professorship in the Department of Behavioral Sciences and Leadership at the US Military Academy (West Point), an in-house leadership and organizational development consultant at IBM, and founder of my own consulting company. Throughout these years, I have read widely, and I have never come across a more thorough or insightful book on collaboration—not even close.
Mr. Valdes-Dapena enables us to traverse the chasm between “knowing and doing.” While virtually everyone acknowledges collaboration can add value to team and organizational performance, virtually no one has provided the detailed instructions to accomplishing this in organizations which are not only filled with individuals possessing a high need for personal achievement but which reward them based on it. Mr. Valdez-Dapena shares his methodology for transforming high achievers into high performance collaborators.
Mr. Valdes-Dapena debunks many myths, not the least of which is that collaboration is always the way to go. He indicates that collaboration is not always required and even when it is, not everyone must be included. He provides a well-grounded framework for determining when collaboration will add value, determining who needs to be involved, and how to achieve true collaboration.
This framework articulates the specific things a team can do to optimize their collaboration. It is a should read for corporate leaders and managers, members of teams, and anyone who works to help people get the best out of themselves and others.
