Working in an inter-dependent world

I always knew that to move from working with an independent mind set to working with an interdependent mind set was a challenge for many managers, particularly those working in complex organisations, but that truth has become even more apparent this week as our political leaders grapple with this concept.

Perhaps they should think through in more detail these six ‘C’s of interdependent working.

Collaborating (versus compromise)
Co-existing (working together for the common good)
Co-creation (of innovative solutions)
Compensating (for each other’s weaknesses)
Co-operating (to satisfy the electorate i.e. their customer)
Continuously Improving (working on the electoral and political process for long term change and improvement)

If they don’t know how to do this I have a diagnostic which might help them!
