COLLABORATING

ON COLLABORATION

The idea of collaborating on collaboration started with a question to Shelle
Rose Charvet about how a previous book, Innovations in NLP (2011) came
about.  Shelle and I had put that book together within a six months time
frame as we brought together two dozen trainers and researchers in the field
of NLP.  The result was the first truly collaborative work of diverse people
in the field of NLP.  That had never before occurred.  Later, Shelle was
talking about this with Ian, and an idea arose between them, "Why don't we
model collaboration?"  Shortly thereafter the three of us took the next
eight months to interview and model each other.  Our design was to discover
how each of us have been involved in collaborations with various people over
the years.

Most collaborations, if not all of them, requires a catalyst-someone to
bring people together around a compelling idea.  That's the role that Shelle
played in The Collaborative Leader (2016).  Then, as sometimes happens in
collaborations, life's challenges in her life required that she step back.
When she shared the details and the motivating factors for her regarding why
she needed to step back, both Ian and I both knew that it was the best thing
and fully ecological for her.  So she did.

That left the two of us (myself and Ian McDermott) to either continue or
drop the project.  Actually, it really was not an issue for either of us.
We both cared about collaboration and thought that the modeling that we had
begun had already produced valuable information.  So we were both committed
to continuing.  The next steps involves several things- doing a literary
search of the subject, thinking through what we wanted to say, the audience
that we wanted to address, etc.  In the process we tapped into several keys
about collaboration-one being to recognize and utilize each person's
strengths.  To that end, Michael did the literary research and Ian
formulated that a significant contribution would be to address the subject
of the collaborative leader-as the ultimate expression of leadership. 

Yet given that we are both busy with trainings, coaching, writing, and
living our lives, and the fact that we are seldom "home"-we experienced one
of the key challenges of collaboration.  Namely, how do two busy persons
find the time, or make the time, to collaborate on an important project?  We
did so primarily by skype conference calls.  Ian would be in London or in
Connecticut and Michael being in Colorado or elsewhere around the world.
Ian's style involved pacing the room, reflecting, presenting ideas,
challenging ideas, Michael's style involved catching the ideas, getting them
written down, asking questions, challenging, etc.

Eventually over the next couple years (yes, years!), the book came together.
During that time, we presented much of what we were discovering at the NLP
Conference in London and that helped also to solidify our thinking about
what it takes to be a collaborative leader. In our opinion, the ultimate
leadership challenge is that of being a collaborative leader.  Why?  Because
the historical tradition has always focused on the singular leader- the
independent person who stands out as a leader. 

In today's world with things changing, the individual leader is less and
less able to make things happen.  Today most organizations are led by a
leadership team and for that to be effective, it requires collaboration.
