The virtuous tripod

The three things to look at when working as a team

· Cooperation,Collective,Intelligence

A remedy against the three doors of disintegration

How can we free ourselves from these three painful realities?

  1. Conflicts - When we keep fighting instead of collaborating.
  2. Inneficiency - When we give all our time to useless things.
  3. Immobility - When we are not able to take any solid decisions.

Step 1: Integrating cognitive biases & differences

The way I perceive the world is necessarily limited and different from the way the others do... That's why it is important to give a place to everyone, so every individual piece completes the global picture.

Step 2: Practicing positive interaction & cooperation

Being kind to one another, looking first at the positive aspect of any insights, bringing my share to the collective work knowing that it will contribute to a larger output… these are the key elements building up sustainable cooperation.

Step 3: Taking decisions & bringing everyone onboard

When the time comes to take action, in the decision process, why not involve all those who have the knowledge and will be impacted by these decisions? The point is not only about making the right choices but making sure that decisions will be supported by all.
