This document discusses improving collaboration in dispersed workplaces. It notes that employees are busy, blocking noise, and dispersed globally. The "50 foot rule" finds people more than 50 feet apart don't collaborate as easily. It suggests connecting through a shared culture, making it easy to find people, and using effective communication tools. A quote from Intel finds employees waste a day a week finding expertise. The document advocates building a strong culture as the foundation for collaboration and proposes using employee-generated video on an internal social platform to create engagement and knowledge sharing. It provides examples of how employee-generated video works and concludes with next steps information.
