Colla borations are rarely derailed by the technical wor k. They are derailed by culture: the unspoken assu mptions each party brings and\, it turns out\, tho se assumptions are hidden most effectively from th e people who hold them.\n \n Places are limited\, so please register today.\n \n When partners come together\, in a joint venture or any other collabo ration\, each side tends to assume its own way is simply &ldquo\;the real world&rdquo\; and to pull the other towards it. The result can be a tug of w ar lasting the life of the project. It doesn&rsquo \;t have to be this way. Leaders can deliberately create what Edgar Schein\, the original authority on organisational culture\, called a &ldquo\;cultu ral island&rdquo\;: a shared way of working\, desi gned for the joint purpose.\n \n Collaboration als o multiplies the stakeholders you need to keep on side\, each with different priorities\, and the mo st important is often your own boss or your board. This workshop will share practical approaches to both challenges\, with time to apply them to your own situation and options to continue in depth wit h an ongoing workshop series.\n \n We hope you can join us.\n \n Learning Outcomes:\n \n - Why colla borations stall at the boundaries\, and how to rec ognise culture at work\n \n - Seeing your own cult ure clearly &ndash\; often the hardest part\n \n - Designing a cultural island for a joint venture o r partnership\n \n - Understanding what really mat ters to each stakeholder\n \n - Influencing upward s: making it easier for the boss or the board to s ay yes\n \n This workshop is ideal for business le aders\, senior managers and project leads in engin eering and manufacturing who are involved in colla borations\, joint ventures or jointly funded proje cts\, or who need to influence people who don&rsqu o\;t work for them.\n \n Business Benefits:\n \n - Collaborative and funded projects that deliver\n \n - Less friction and rework at organisational in terfaces\n \n - Faster\, better-supported decision s\n \n - Stronger\, more durable partnerships\n \n - Better return on shared funding and resources\n \n Workshop Leader:\n \n This workshop will be le d by Dr David Fraser\, a long-standing associate o f CeeD\, for whom he runs two highly regarded lead ership groups.
