Even though collaboration in the workplace has increased by 50% over the last 20 years, research from Zippa shows that 39% of employees say people at their organization don’t collaborate enough and 86% of leaders blame lack of collaboration as the top reason for workplace failures.
Successful collaboration at work improves innovation by 30% and, on average, top-performing workers spend 45% of their time on the job working individually, 45% of their time on the job working collaboratively, and 10% of their time on the job learning and socializing. An environment that supports all types of work is required to support this mix.
