From the course: Collective Intelligence at Work

Course overview

- Welcome to Collective Intelligence at Work. 8 Science-based principles of collective intelligence that unlock successful collaboration and decision-making in your team. I'm Pam Hamilton. I'm a teamwork and collaboration expert, and I'm the author of "The Workshop Book" and "Supercharged Teams," and I want to bring more collective intelligence into the world of business to help teams work better together. So as you listen to this, think about a team that you work in. We all work in a lot of teams these days, so have one in mind that you'd really like to supercharge as you listen. In this course, you're going to learn how to design and facilitate successful meetings and workshops using the science of collective intelligence. We're going to learn about the importance of diversifying teams to increase project success and prepare team members to contribute in the best possible way and how you can create collaboration opportunities and manage the best behaviors for that. We're also going to talk about how to enhance constructive conflict to stretch your team's thinking, and also guarantee equal participation by all team members, structuring information and content for decision-making and using storytelling to effectively communicate information persuasively. So let's get started.
