The art of collaboration is a critical capability for the 21st Century.
Great collaboration creates expansive feelings, new awareness, and experiences to remember … and increases both innovation and efficiency. It can even potentially save the world. Harnessing Serendipity reflects this by including several chapters on people who work at the highest levels of diplomacy. While there is a great need for a book like this, there is not yet a book precisely like it. There are some memoirs of people who have created events. There are coffee table books that feature the work of a particular individual or company. There are dense academic studies that look at collaborative experiences. There are books with checklists and corporate sounding culture change commentary. Different from all of those, this new book is created to appeal to those who need to get collaborations to work, or to work better. And that’s just about everyone. The emphasis on authentic, real-world stories places the book squarely in the “How to” category.
Each reader will find new ways to think about collaboration. The reader can pick up juicy, electric ideas that are worth reflection, and perhaps replication.
