This programme is designed for:
In the digital age, we operate at the fringe and cross-pollinate different fields, as we learn, solve novel problems and create new possibilities together. This means we need to look at the whole issue, identify people with the right expertise and experience and be willing to renegotiate roles and ways of working.

Why is this critical?
“Wholeness Based Collaboration” goes beyond emotional intelligence and interpersonal skills to help a team focus on the whole, contract with peers, navigate ambiguities, manage opposing interests and path-find amidst complexity.
​
This changes the basis of partnering:
-
Relationships replace job descriptions.
-
Peer accountability replaces performance appraisals.
-
Systems focus replaces functional focus.
-
Making and honouring promises to peers is basis of commitment.
-
Looking out for the whole, going beyond one's functional lens, is what brings expertise together to solve problems.
-
The quality of the relationships determines how effectively a team goes beyond the boundaries of old job descriptions to cover the grey areas in between.
