Knowledge has become the new source of wealth, and the sharing of knowledge through collaboration, the key to the success of today's corporation. Unfortunately, the mindset of most business people is not one of cooperation, but of competition. The field of knowledge management largely focuses on technology, systems, and valuation of intellectual property, but the human side is often neglected. In Collaborate to Compete, Stokes and Logan focus on the human side, offering a practical, applied approach to fostering a spirit of collaboration not just within a company, but also with suppliers, customers, and even competitors to gain a competitive advantage. The book introduces students to an instrument for measuring organizational collaboration, while the case studies provide a blueprint for the implementation of new collaborative systems and culture.
