Synopsis: Collaboration is crucial for any kind of organization that wants to be productive, adaptable, and creative. When people are collaborating, profits increase and things get done. When they're not, your organization loses time and energy. Why, then, do many private enterprises and government agencies struggle to provide collaboration tools their employees will actually use? Dynamic Collaboration offers practical advice to help you answer questions like these: - What tools does your organization need to help facilitate collaboration? - How do you ensure that your personnel will use those tools? - How can you protect your privileged information? - How can you harness the power of Web 2.0 and use it to capture the collective intelligence of your organization? Whether you are a leader in the public or private sector or a technologist, you'll discover ways to help team members solve problems they wouldn't otherwise have solved, get work done quicker than ever before, and feel connected because they are working together toward a common goal. "We are witnessing a transformation of collaboration in real time, and there's no better factual content than what Schwemmer and Havrilla have compiled in this book. Having spent time as a CIO at three different government agencies, I recommend this as required reading for those serious about collaboration." --Barry C. West, Executive Vice President, SE Solutions, Inc., and former CIO, US Department of Commerce
