i4cp Launches New Study on Collaboration in Partnership with Rob Cross
i4cp is thrilled to partner with thought leader Rob Cross, professor of management at University of Virginia’s McIntire School of Commerce, to research the critical factors that drive (or inhibit) effective collaboration in organizations. We want to better understand how people and teams work together to impact business performance, and how organizations are enabling collaboration in their workforces.
For over a decade, Cross's research, teaching and consulting has focused on applying social network analysis ideas to critical business issues for actionable insights and bottom-line results. Research on Collaborative Overload by Cross, who is also a member of i4cp’s Thought Leader Consortium, was featured on the cover of the Jan-Feb 2016 issue of Harvard Business Review.
We would greatly appreciate your insights. Complete the survey by Wednesday, August 31 and you'll receive an exclusive first look at the preliminary findings in September.
