I think everyone has a general operating definition of what collaboration should look like.



00:05 - 00:11
Everyone from different departments working together and moving the same direction to achieve a specific business outcome.



00:11 - 00:31
But how that collaboration process is put together is where it looks very, very different from one company to another. Like I mentioned before, the culture change in our company when we thought collaboration meant always having lots of updates and check ins and meetings all the time, that was the definition of what collaboration meant, so that we're all on the same page about stuff.



00:31 - 00:38
I think in the modern world now, especially as companies grow larger and they are more being merged with other companies.



00:38 - 00:53
And so the ability to transfer information back and forth and have everyone in different parts of the world looking at the exact same info at a single source of truth becomes more and more important for collaboration to work effectively in the modern world.



00:53 - 00:58
I don't think businesses can be competitive when departments are working in data silos.



00:58 - 01:13
They cannot be collaborative in the way that's necessary to respond fast enough to new trends, quality issues, consumer demands, other things that a business needs to have a strong hand on in order to adapt to a changing marketplace.



01:13 - 01:40
Collaboration for me now is the ability for all stakeholders involved in the development of a business or operation of a business process to be looking at a single source of truth so that any conversations, any data input or updates, all that is going to a centralized place. And there's no inefficiencies involved in keeping everyone talking about the same things with the same framework, with the same context.

But what we've known from what I experience was, is we were able to get there with the system. We still there with the system. The system has what is needed to provide us what we're looking for, because every company, admittedly, is trying to get compliant. If we educate people, if we get people the education that they need and to get over the fear factor, I think 90% of those things can be resolved because most people will go to what they're most familiar with.What I worked with from a different company, but they're not willing to sit down and look at what the demographics are saying. People are into social media now. People are moving fast into fast paced world. But technologies are still antiquated. So there's a disconnect here, right? So while we're moving at a fast pace at home with dragging at work, so why can't we continue that speed while we at work?If your supplier has issues and you're not informed on time, you want to have an alternate supplier in place. If your suppliers are not qualified, you may not know that that needs to happen. And so when you have an integrated system that speaks to itself and is giving you all this data, you literally have the pulse of the organization in your hands as an executive at a money bound access.
