#144 Tricia and Edward: Getting Teams to Work Together Without the Headaches – Part Two

Yes, that's a really good point. There are barriers to collaboration. They sneak up on you and they can be barriers that are inside us that we don't maybe recognize or inside someone else. And we don't know why we think they're being a jerk, but really they have some barrier that's speaks to a wound in their life in some way.

But those barriers that we see most often are people who have a sense of superiority, so they don't think they have to do the work or it's beneath them, or they have a big ego and want all the attention, or I have to do everything myself. They're like too self-reliant and they think everyone else doesn't do it their way. And sometimes it's okay for people to do it a different way.

And the one that is a little sneaky is insecurity, where a leader, they might have just been put in a position that they're not fully equipped for. So their insecurity can come out in a negative way.

And then the last one is really just about being ungrateful, like having ingratitude to see that you actually have some great people working around you who want to help you, that you have all these tools and these people. And so all these things are, again, they speak to the behaviors. There are these internal things. When you get in a work situation to your question,

The reason we all fail a lot is there hasn't been a lot of focus necessarily on developing what character looks like or what morality looks like in the workplace or doing the right thing or virtue even. It's like it almost sounds old fashioned. Once you get into the workplace, we see each other and we're working with each other, and it's a very external thing.

It's, oh, I need this report, so I'm going to do this report. Oh, I need to serve this salad, so I'm making this salad. I need to build a construction project. It's all very external. We can get caught up in thinking that life is external. So much of what we experience is very internal.

Yes, I just want to emphasize what Edward just said, because we're both designers. And so we're like, how do you design collaboration onto a team? But what he just said is a truth that companies, they're designed, their structures are designed not necessarily to support collaboration or to reward teams. They reward individuals.

I'll jump in now. I'm Trisha Cerrone and my history really goes back. My entire career has been one of designing and telling stories with new technologies. I think pretty much every project I've ever done had some kind of either new hardware or software or experience that we were trying to create.
