Collaboration is key in making any organization thrive in today’s challenging environment. But collaboration is much more than simply working together.  True collaboration requires bringing together diverse skill sets, viewpoints and experiences in order to fully leverage the collective strengths of the group.  Collaborative tools and technologies can act as powerful accelerants in the process. 

New theories on enhancing collaboration and enabling adoption of these technologies point to the role that inclusion plays in fostering the necessary  competencies, knowledge, mind set, and behaviors.  Chief Information Officers focused on enabling technology adoption and Chief Diversity Officers focused on creating highly inclusive environments have an opportunity to explore how a more collaborative relationship can drive tangible value across the organization , and ultimately fuel both collaboration and innovation.
