3-2-1 TUESDAYS WITH MS NIV

Issue #96, 10th May 2022

At the heart of innovation lies collaboration. Diversity and conflict are a part of it and so is abrasive discussion when you not only listen and contribute but actively advocate. It is a combination of scientific methods and artistic processes. How can you teach collaboration and cooperation in your class and at home – to your students and children? How can you role model collaboration in your class and school for students to learn from and benefit from? This issue has tips for that and also a link to my master class this afternoon on Collaborative Teaching. Check that out. Don’t miss the talk of Prof. Linda Hill on how collaboration can be supported and managed for consistent creativity. She has picked some very cool case studies.

Two Thoughts of the Week

”When I was a kid, there was no collaboration; it’s you with a camera bossing your friends around. But as an adult, filmmaking is all about appreciating the talents of the people you surround yourself with and knowing you could never have made any of these films by yourself. ” Steven Spielberg

“Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence win championships.” – Michael Jordan

One Video of the Week

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. At the heart of innovation is a paradox: you have to unleash the talents and passions of many people, yet you have to harness them into a work that is actually useful. Management professor Linda Hill offers three keys to overcoming this paradox and building a truly innovative organization.

Linda A. Hill is the Wallace Brett Donham Professor of Business Administration at the Harvard Business School. She is the faculty chair of the Leadership Initiative and has chaired numerous HBS Executive Education programs, including the Young Presidents’ Organization Presidents’ Seminar and the High Potentials Leadership Program.

She was course-head during the development of the new Leadership and Organizational Behavior MBA required course. She is the co-author, with Greg Brandeau, Emily Truelove, and Kent Lineback of Collective Genius: The Art and Practice of Leading Innovation and coauthor with Kent Lineback of Being the Boss: The 3 Imperatives of Becoming a Great Leader. In 2013, she was named by Thinkers50 as one of the top ten management thinkers in the world.
