The Importance of Teamwork and Collaboration at Work

Technical advancement and the Internet have modified the world and digital workplaces have revamped the traditional way of conducting business and how teams work in a global world. Cloud technology, laptops, smartphones, and tablets enable remote working and improve team efficiency.

Collaboration in the workplace – what is it?

Collaboration means a group of people sharing their ideas and skills to achieve common goals. The team members with their different perspectives, expertise, and ideas work towards finding innovative solutions that enhance organizational efficiency. Collaboration can happen for teams working remotely or in the office. The objective is maximizing the possibility of success by administering collaborative and communicative experiences across the entire organization.

Benefits of collaboration in the workplace

Allows teams to pool their resources by complementing the strengths of its members

Increases efficiency as all members work towards finding effective solutions and division of work to achieve deadlines without delays

Enables learning as every member brings in their education, expertise, and experience thereby building trust within the teams

Enhances employee engagement and retention encouraging people to stay for longer duration within the organization

What is collaborative training?

It encourages personnel to share their experience and knowledge while offering learning and teaching to every participant. Collaborative training enhances the overall experience of the team members and capitalizes on the ideas, knowledge, and skills of the participants.

Employees are able to better understand within a group as compared to individual training as they are given the chance to hear different viewpoints, reframe their ideas, and articulate various points.

Here are some ways to bring in collaboration in the workplace:

Learning communities

Such communities offer an environment fostering a collaborative approach to solve issues and meeting organizational objectives. Priority is given to open communication and offers participants the opportunity to learn from others and teach others.

Training teams

An effective but simple method is including different departments or teams to provide training to other groups on their responsibilities. Such sessions allow members to share their duties and experiences with other people within the organization. These also allow participants to offer insights on various ways to resolve issues that are related to their expertise and experience.

Peer learning

It involves peers to learn together by sharing their knowledge and expertise. Peer collaborative training uses learning content for other members of the team and is an excellent way to share knowledge while reducing the efforts of the learning and development teams to constantly create and update training materials for the people. Some examples include:

Onboarding buddy where an experienced peer trains new people and ensures smooth integration of the new employees within the company

Setting up online work groups allowing employees to create collaborative teams

Interaction among peers in a relaxed social environment

Peer reviews

One of the best and most effective ways to conduct performance reviews is to implement peer review systems where employees receive feedback from their fellow members. Such reviews encourage two-way learning and let employees view and be inspired by each other’s work. Receiving feedback from peers helps personnel learn more by being able to ask questions without any hesitation.

Here is how organizations can set up an effective peer review process:

Managers select peers to conduct the review and then communicate the objective of peer evaluation to their teams

Peer reviews can be made more efficient by using intranet or software programs that streamline the entire procedure while procuring important information and ratings

Allow people to freely express their opinions and views in addition to the numerical evaluation

Based on the peer reviews, managers can provide one-on-one sessions with the evaluated employees for further discussions

Group problem resolution

This technique includes a group of learners who are given a specific problem that must be solved within a certain period of time. This method enhances communication and team productivity while motivating the participants to acquire a deeper understanding of different concepts. During these sessions, brainstorming is encouraged so the group as a whole can evaluate from different ideas to discover the best solution.

Collaborative training is an excellent way to consolidate the brain power, curiosity, experience, and knowledge of different people to learn quickly and resolve issues together in a faster and more effective manner. Companies can start their journey to bring collaboration in the workplace by including one or more of the aforementioned ways.

some of Eli Clare's writing about diagnosis feels very relevant to discussions on tumblr right now:

"It’s impossible to grapple with cure without encountering white Western medical diagnosis—ink on paper in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders and the International Classification of Diseases, a process in the hands of doctors, a system of categorization. I want to read diagnosis as a source of knowledge, sometimes trustworthy and other times suspect. As a tool and a weapon shaped by particular belief systems, useful and dangerous by turns. As a furious storm, exerting pressure in many directions.

Simply put, diagnosis wields immense power. It can provide us access to vital medical technology or shame us, reveal a path toward less pain or get us locked up. It opens doors and slams them shut.

Diagnosis names the conditions in our body-minds, charts the connections between them. It holds knowledge. It organizes visceral realities. It draws borders and boundaries, separating fluid in the lungs from high blood pressure, ulcers from kidney stones, declaring anxiety attacks distinct from heart attacks, post-traumatic stress disconnected from depression. It legitimizes some pain as real; it identifies other pain as psychosomatic or malingering. It reveals little about the power of these borders and boundaries. Through its technology—x-rays, MRIs, blood draws, EKGs, CAT scans—diagnosis transforms our three-dimensional body-minds into two-dimensional graphs and charts, images on light boards, symptoms in databases, words on paper. It holds history and creates baselines. It predicts the future and shapes all sorts of decisions. It unleashes political and cultural forces. At its best, diagnosis affirms our distress, orients us to what’s happening in our body-minds, helps make meaning out of chaotic visceral experiences.

But diagnosis rarely stays at its best. It can also disorient us or de- value what we know about ourselves. It can leave us with doubts, questions, shame. It can catapult us out of our body-minds. All too often diagnosis is poorly conceived or flagrantly oppressive. It is brandished as authority, our body-minds bent to match diagnostic criteria rather than vice versa. Diagnosis can become a cover for what health care providers don’t understand; become more important than our messy visceral selves; become the totality of who we are.

...

It is impossible to name all the ways in which diagnosis is useful.

It propels eradication and affirms what we know about our own body-minds. It extends the reach of genocide and makes meaning of the pain that keeps us up night after night. It allows for violence in the name of care and creates access to medical technology, human services, and essential care. It sets in motion social control and guides treatment that provides comfort. It takes away self-determination and saves lives. It disregards what we know about our own body-minds and leads to cure.

Diagnosis is useful, but for whom and to what ends?"

-Eli Clare, Brilliant Imperfection pg 41-42, 48.

I rag on leftists a lot but it seems to me like so many of them very clearly don't talk to people outside of their narrow social circle and don't actually bother putting in any work into the community they live in, so they end up with this inability to have nuance in their thinking and act like rubbing elbows with people who aren't precisely like them will make them morally impure or some hogshit like that.

The Acronix’s Borgpad playlist now has 11 contributors, 62 songs, and a playtime of 3 hours and 40 minutes. I’d say this was a successful community effort! And we are still going! If anybody wanted to participate but didn’t want to ask for a link, here’s a new one.

Everybody who has added songs is amazing and I love you, especially at least three of you that put song song there that I would have if you hadn’t beaten me to it.

so what im learning is be the zine collective u wish to see in the world huh

[nhaneh]

funny thing is I don't really have any interest in hoarding knowledge or resources for myself in any way, I'm just bad at publishing stuff because I feel like that'd require a bit more stringent quality control than what I might expect of something made largely for my own use.

sometimes I think maybe I should set up something like a google drive or a git or something to just throw my personal- and work-in-progress stuff for people who are interested, but I dunno what limits for space or bandwidth or anything are like.

like I'm sure some people would possibly find the ColorSet unpacker python script useful?? It kinda sucks through and I want to make a better version of it and maybe one that could work as a standalone executable instead? and possibly a packer counterpart to the unpacker?? But also I keep thinking like "would this even be useful to anyone lmao??"

in theory you could probably make some kind of art program plugin that does all of this for you - even the bit with loading actual colorset information into layered colorset pairs, but I mean that's a lot of effort and I still largely use a 20+ year old version of Paint Shop Pro myself so...
