Preparing for large-scale collaborations (Collaborations A)
In this first of a two part series of two-hour workshops, you will explore dimensions of team readiness for large, multi-stakeholder collaborative initiatives and how a team readiness assessment can be used to identify which areas you need to address as a priority. By the end of this workshop, you will have drafted a survey for your project, ready to determine how to translate the survey responses into practical next steps in the second workshop.
Designing for large-scale collaborations (Collaborations B)
In this second workshop of a two part series, you will debrief the team readiness surveys that you drafted in workshop one and completed for homework. You will explore how to report the results back to the team and determine next steps to take. Then, using a framework describing collaborative approaches, you will identify which combination of approaches or activities will be helpful for the next stage of your collaboration.
Part A | Wednesday, 19 August 2026 10am – 12pm EDT / 2pm – 4pm UTC
Part B | Thursday, 20 August 2026 10am – 12pm EDT / 2pm – 4pm UTC
Register for this 2-part Mini-workshop series (deadline: Wednesday, 12 August 2026)
