Introduction

Collaboration within a team has an impact on its performance, which is essential to accelerate innovation. But what are the essential factors for healthy collaboration based on trust and communication? Why do companies still separate team process management from team climate management? What changes in mindset are needed to create and foster collaboration in a team and what is our role as facilitators?
