3. What is Collaboration ? Collaboration is a recursive process where two or more people or organizations work together in an intersection of common goals — for example, an intellectual endeavor [1] [2] that is creative in nature [3] —by sharing knowledge, learning and building consensus. Most collaboration requires leadership , although the form of leadership can be social within a decentralized and egalitarian group. [4] In particular, teams that work collaboratively can obtain greater resources, recognition and reward when facing competition for finite resources. [5] Collaboration is also present in opposing goals exhibiting the notion of adversarial collaboration, though this is not a common case for using the term.
