 “Managing and Working in the Collaborative Environment: Techniques & Technology to Make Collaborations Easier”

Collaboration isn’t just a great idea, many organizations now find it both a cultural and fiscal necessity.  However, it takes more than good intentions to make sure that collaboration succeeds.  Dr. Stansbury’s workshop features strategies and techniques that increase success in the collaborative environment.  Materials will be presented in a variety of ways, including hands-on exercises, plus both high-tech and low-tech tools to increase effectiveness in the collaborative environment.  Highlights of the morning’s agenda include:

The Nature of Collaborative Work: 

  • Characteristics of Collaborative Work, Types of Tasks
  • Group Member Skills & Competencies, Decision-Making Processes

Tools for Collaboration:

  • Interpersonal, Institutional
  • Checklists & Guidelines
  • Software: Groove, ProjectPlace, Microsoft Project and open source

Dr. Stansbury, Assistant Professor in Kent State University’s School of Library and Information Science, recently collaborated on “Virtual Inequality: Beyond the Digital Divide”
