 CHAPTER 8: COLLABORATIVE (COOPERATIVE)
PARTNERSHIPS WITH STAKEHOLDERS
• Collaboration is defined as ―the act of working together to produce or
create something according to the capacities and abilities of individuals.
• Each individual‘s collaboration is based on his knowledge and skills. A
person should not be discriminated due to mismatch with other people‘s
abilities; because he has his own quality in other perspectives.
• Collaboration means 'to work with another person or group in order to
achieve intended goals.
• Collaboration provides every team member with equal opportunities to
participate and communicate their ideas.
• Collaboration in the workplace is when two or more people (often
groups) work together through idea sharing and thinking to accomplish a
common goal. It is simply teamwork taken to a higher level.
• The phrase 'putting our heads together' would be a good example of this
important element of collaboration.

11
 CONTINUED
• Collaboration enables individuals to work together to
achieve a defined and common business purpose. It exists
in two forms:
• Synchronous, where everyone interacts in real time, as in
through telephone, email, online meetings, through instant
text messages, or via Viber, and
• The team sees value in working together as the common
goal gives them a meaningful reason to work together,
along with receiving mutual benefits for the institution as
well as the team.
• The advantages of collaboration can also be seen in terms
of individual output. Creating a sense of teamwork and
building bonds encourages team members to work for the
collective rather than just themselves. 12
Key elements of successful collaboration

• There are four most important elements of

teamwork to help you build a team that will
lead your company to success.
– Respect. This one should be a no-brainer. ...
– Communication. While respect is probably the most
important element of teamwork, communication is
the tool that will generate that respect. ...

 General principles of collaboration

• Establish clear common goals for the

collaboration.
• Define your respective roles and who is
accountable for what, but accept joint
responsibility for the decisions and their
outcomes
• Take a problem-solving approach – with a
sense that all those in the collaborative
arrangement share ownership of the problem
and its solution.
15
• Establish an atmosphere of trust and mutual
respect for each others‘ expertise.
• Aim for consensus decision-making.
• Ask for and give immediate and objective
feedback to others in a nonthreatening and
non-judgmental manner.

16
 contd
• Give credit to others for their ideas and
accomplishments
• Develop procedures for resolving conflicts and
manage these processes skillfully.
• Better still, anticipate possible conflicts and
take steps to avoid them as far as possible.
This is not to say that disagreements can, or
even should, be avoided.
• Arrange periodic meetings to review progress
in the collaborative arrangements.
17
Benefits of collaboration
• Higher employee productivity
• The advantages of collaboration can also be
seen in terms of individual output.
• Creating a sense of teamwork and building
bonds encourages team members to work for
the collective rather than just themselves

18
 contd

through sharing resources such as office
space, administration or other aspects of an
organization‘s operation.
• Improved service coordination across
agencies, with better pathways or referral
systems for service users.

19
Challenges to Team Collaboration
• Indecisive decision-makers. Ironic, isn't it? ...
• "E-fail" This is a little term used for when email straight
up fails. ...
• Miss (sing) communication. When collaborating, there
is always room for misinterpretation and
miscommunication.
• Process sinking vs. process syncing.

20
 Cooperativeness
• Cooperation is one of the components of collaboration.
As an adjective, cooperative describes working
together agreeably for a common purpose or goal as in
cooperative play or cooperative employee. As a noun, a
cooperative is a jointly-owned business or enterprise
where members pool their resources to purchase, do
work, and/or distribute things.
• Cooperativeness helps individuals to willing learn from
each other. Learners work together in small groups,
helping each other to carry out individual and group
tasks.
21
• Interdependence: all group members seek to achieve a
group goal and help each others‘ achievement;
Individual accountability: each member of the group is
held responsible for his or her own learning, which in
turn contributes to the group goal; Cooperation: the
learners discuss, problem-solve and collaborate with
each other; Face to face interaction and establish
consensus; and Evaluation: members of the group
review and evaluate how they worked together and
make changes as needed.
• It requires interdependence, which can take one or
more forms that help to create inclusiveness: 22
1. Goal interdependence: the group has a single
goal.
2. Reward interdependence: the whole group
receives acknowledgement for achieving the goal
3. Resource interdependence: each group member
has different resources (knowledge or materials)
that must be combined to complete a task
4. Role interdependence: each group member is
assigned a different role (e.g, leader, reporter,
time-keeper)
23
• In cooperative learning and works, the
strategies for effective co-planning and team
working are very important.
 The following steps will help you and your
group to work effectively together.
1. Have clear objectives
