Five for Friday: Collaboration

If you want to improve workplace collaboration, buying a collaboration tool is a step in the right direction. But it's not the answer.

4. @TrainingJournal has a short and sweet article on the unexpected benefits of collaboration.
5. Here's an actionable piece (from us) on how to improve teamwork and collaboration.
