Hello, I'm Andrew Campbell and this video is about collaborative skills.
2
So this is collaboration skills working with people across organisational boundaries,
3
people who you are not in the same building with,
4
particularly in an intimate team with.
5
I've got with me Howell Schroeder here,
6
and Howell and I have been working closely on this issue for quite a while now,
7
and we want to share with you some of the skills which we think are critical to being good at collaboration.
8
So the first is think relationships.
9
Now, there's a tool called the Relationship Map,
10
which we have another video about,
11
and this is a critical tool for helping you think about relationships.
12
So what is the value to you of the relationship?
13
What is the value to them of the relationship or the other person?
14
What is the type of relationship?
15
And how much trust is there in the relationship?
16
So the relationship map is an important tool here.
17
Second is building trust.
18
So as you work on the relationship,
19
what you're trying to do is to build up feelings of goodwill between you
20
and the other person so that the relationship works more smoothly.
21
Hal?
22
So Andrew, thank you for that.
23
So when we're thinking about relationships,
24
I want you to encourage you to have in mind a particular sort of attitude to it.
25
And this attitude is built on the,
26
or drawn from the work of a guy called Martin Novak,
27
who's an evolutionary biologist and mathematician,
28
spent years of his life studying this at Oxford,
29
Princeton, and now at Harvard, I think.
30
And after years of study,
31
and after an awful lot of maths,
32
he has come up with three basic principles and those principles are when you're thinking about relationships be optimistic.
33
Start in when you're imagining to yourself and thinking to yourself get into the mindset this relationship is going to work.
34
The second is be generous.
35
How can I signal to the other party to this relationship
36
that actually this relationship is going to work and be productive
37
and I want to invest it I'm prepared to invest into it to make sure
38
that it does work and it gets off onto the right foot.
39
And thirdly he suggests be forgiving.
40
Sometimes, you know, with the best of intentions,
41
we miss signal to one another,
42
and we can misinterpret what the other people are doing.
43
We think, oh, well, it's all,
44
you know, he wants to shaft me or whatever it is.
45
Often that's not the case.
46
Misunderstanding is far more frequent.
47
So set out with that mindset in mind,
48
be optimistic, be generous and be forgiving.
49
And the second point is,
50
as you're thinking about this,
51
spend a bit of time getting to know yourself.
52
Invest a bit of time in knowing yourself and what your approach is to these things.
53
And here we'd encourage you to have a look at the the Kilman inventory.
54
You can do that online.
55
There's a reference to it at the at the end of the video so you'll see that.
56
You remember, you'll probably be familiar with this that Thomas Kilman did a lot of research in this area,
57
tens of thousands of these inventories distributed over time,
58
very good research base, and he looks at those two elements.
59
He looks at the degree to which we want to be assertive in our relationships
60
and the degree to which we want to be cooperative in our relationships.
61
Now, as we know, we can all be highly assertive,
62
we can all choose to be less assertive,
63
we can all be highly cooperative,
64
and we can all be rather the less cooperative.
65
So we're not going to go into the detail of that at the moment,
66
but as with so many of these instruments,
67
the hypothesis is that we will have a preference for which of those sets of behaviours we deploy most often.
68
And we need to be aware of that preference and have a little think to ourselves,
69
actually, in a given situation,
70
is my default preference the most appropriate,
71
or might it be better for me to try one or other of the different styles?
72
Very, very important.
73
I think self-knowledge is really helpful in relationships.
74
And linking to this question about understanding your own personal behavioural preferences,
75
you often need prompts to help you behave in the right way in the right circumstances.
76
So we all know how to behave when we go to a funeral,
77
and typically we'll put on different clothes to help us behave in that way.
78
If we're going to a very lively party where we're expected to be raucous and enjoy ourselves to the full,
79
again we'll probably wear different clothes,
80
we may even have a different routine before we go out
81
in order to get ourselves in the mood and to signal to ourselves how we should behave in that different situation.
82
In the work environment, we don't have such easy ways of signalling to ourselves
83
that we need to behave differently from one meeting to another.
84
We can't rush out and change our clothes
85
or have a long hot bath before going out or have a couple of gin and tonics before the next meeting.
86
But we need the equivalent prompts,
87
whether it is a particular pad that you use,
88
or a particular coloured pad,
89
or a favourite pen that you get out when it's a collaborative meeting as opposed to a negotiation.
90
Some way, or it can be a tie that you wear or don't wear,
91
or some way of signalling to yourself that the event you're going to requires you to behave in a particular way.
92
Tip number four.
93
Tip number four is about signalling.
94
Thanks, Andrew.
95
Andrew can be joyously raucous at parties,
96
I have to say to you.
97
So, tip number four is about signalling,
98
and here there's a couple of things.
99
The first of those is gifts.
100
As you remember, Martin Novak,
101
one of Martin Novak's encouragements to us when we're thinking about cooperation is actually be generous.
102
So what we don't mean by this is that we rush around distributing parcels of money to our colleagues.
103
What we do have in mind is actually rather different gifts.
104
There might be gifts of time,
105
there might be gifts of attention,
106
there might be gifts of information.
107
Back in the 1920s, a couple of anthropologists,
108
Martin Malinowski, did a lot of work in the South Sea Islands
109
and amongst their theories was
110
that the sense of community among this distributed group of islands
111
was enhanced by the giving from one island to another of seashells.
112
Seashells which had allegedly no monetary value but symbolized the sense of community
113
and were interpreted as a very generous act by the receiving island.
114
So in the same way we can stimulate
115
that sense of community amongst our working colleagues today by making sure that we are,
116
as Andrew expressed it, making deposits in those emotional bank accounts,
117
giving people time, giving people attention,
118
helping them out when they're struggling for resources
119
or struggling to see a clear way forward
120
and making sure they have the information that they need to do their jobs properly.
121
And the second thing, so in addition to gifts,
122
the second thing is around tone.
123
We all know that we can be right and
124
that we can be right in such a way
125
that pisses our colleagues off completely or in such a way that encourages them to work with us.
126
My neighbour has a fridge magnet which says when I married Mr. Wright I didn't realise that his first name was always.
127
And so So I would encourage you to think,
128
well, in offering this opinion or offering this piece of advice or offering this piece of information to my colleagues,
129
what is the tone that I want to do that with?
130
Do I want to?
131
What is the sort of tone that I want to create?
132
And clearly, what you want to create is a positive,
133
generous tone rather than a rather dismissive and see what a fool you are sort of tone.
134
We want to encourage that much more positive tone.
135
And email in particular.
136
I'm one of the worst offenders personally on email and can easily lose
137
that feel for the other human being who I'm communicating with when you're typing away on email.
138
So beware of email tone.
139
Fifth tip is a simple one.
140
Be prepared to be analytical.
141
So collaboration skills, skills, yes it's about relationships,
142
yes it's about tone, yes it's about knowing yourself,
143
but also it's about analytical.
144
I've mentioned the stakeholder map as being a way of being analytical about relationships, the relationship map.
145
But business case, one of the dangers in collaboration is you can be working very hard together with somebody
146
and the net benefit of this often energy-consuming,
147
difficult work is not big enough to warrant the effort.
148
So be analytical about business case.
149
Make sure you understand what the payoff is before you try
150
and work across organisation boundaries in ways which inevitably will be energy-saving and time-consuming.
151
And then the other part of the relationship map is diagnose your relationships.
152
hard about what's going wrong or what's going right in the relationship
153
and and we have another video on on relationship diagnostic final tip Hal yes I'd just like to emphasize
154
that point about being analytical there Andrew so it's so important whether
155
or not we ourselves are comfortable with data comfortable with the business cases comfortable doing
156
that sort of study and thinking about things in that way even
157
if we're not we'll certainly have some colleagues who are good to convince
158
and those colleagues may well be interested in the data and what the the various analyses we've done are.
159
So we would encourage you to do that.
160
Final tip then, getting good at virtual.
161
This is covered in a separate video,
162
but our encouragement to you is this.
163
It is a little different.
164
In fact, it is quite different.
165
A lot of the information that we get comes through body language when we're in face-to-face meetings.
166
Figures vary, but let's say 70-80% of the information that we actually take in actually comes from our understanding of body language.
167
So we don't have that to the same extent in virtual meetings.
168
So we need to be aware of that and we need to be aware of the other differences.
169
So many of the same skills that we have in our normal meetings apply,
170
but some of them are rather different.
171
We have to pay more attention to preparation,
172
to process, to checking in with the other people who are in the meeting,
173
and we have to often be more explicit and more rigorous and disciplined about that.
174
So it is a little different,
175
and we'd encourage you have a look at the other video for a little bit more on that.
176
Thank you so much.

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
