The authors have dedicated much of their professional careers to understanding the impact of collaboration within organizations. Collaboration is not only just about technology, but also about a company's culture and processes.

In order for businesses to suceed today, collaboration across an organization is imperative. It should start at the top by setting the culture, sharing knowlege, being transparent, and holding everyone accountabie. Once the leader believes in collaboration, it will affect all of the employees. Technology tools can help to bridge the gap across teams so they can connect and work together.

Successful collaboration needs to embraced by every person in the organization. Putting a strategy together is critical for collaborative success.

The book is an enjoyable read in which the authors explore the various aspects of collaboration with examples from Cisco and other organizations. Throughout the book, the authors interview executives to get their perpspective on collaboration.

The book is divided in the main sections: culture, process, and technology. It is interesting to read how these concepts fit together for the collaborative process.

Each chapter starts with a concept drawing and Executive Summary and then ends with a 60 second wrap. If you want to learn how collaboration can help excel your organization, then this book may be worth reading.
