Ep. #19: Much of the time we like to work independently, maybe because of work environment, preference, or pride. And yet we know there are great benefits and advantages to working as a team and collaborating with other people. This week’s episode is a re-edit of episode 3, one of my favorite episodes, when I spoke with David and Mary Sherwin, co-founders of Ask the Sherwins, about doing the impactful work we want to do, through improved collaboration and effective teams. David and Mary work with companies and teach workshops around the globe about effective teamwork and affecting change within the workplace. In this interview we discussed how to affect change when there doesn’t seem to be much traction, how to get collaboration from teams across orgs, helpful resources like the Sherwins’ Team Words, and much more. The Sherwins help teams 'make better cake' (we love that!) and you can learn more on their website at askthesherwins.com where you can also find advice, info about their books and products, and get on their mailing list.• About Frog's Collective Action Toolkit: The Collective Action Toolkit puts design-thinking tools into the hands of local change agents to transform communities (which David helped create and which Mary helped edit) Download the PDF• Teamwords: The Working Deck - a simple way to align your teams.
