Having a Hard Time Collaborating?
Your team may be suffering from Collaborative Dysfunction (CD)
Collaborative Dysfunction
[kuh-lab-uh-rey-tiv] [dis-fuhngk-shuh-n]
The inability to work together as a team or maintain collaboration long enough to achieve satisfactory results.
- Stop Drowning in Email
- Prevent Pointless Meetings
- Avoid Trivial Interruptions
Collaborative Dysfunction: Warning Signs
Your team may be at risk if it's experiencing one or more of the following symptoms:
Symptom
Project Management Stress
Information is scattered throughout email, hard drives, and shared network drives, causing team chaos as deadlines close in.
Cure
Everything in One Place
Create, share, and discuss work in one place online that's accessible by your team. No more information silos, no more chaos.
Symptom
Inevitable Bottleneck Syndrome
Contributions are made by one person at a time rather than the collective whole needed to drive deliverables to completion.
Cure
Give Everyone a Voice
Everyone can contribute, breaking down the bottlenecks that shut down progress and keep your team from taking action.
Symptom
Reckless Meeting Disorder
Why do decisions always require meetings? Your calendar looks like a game of Tetris, leaving little time to get real work done.
Cure
Make Decisions Online
Brainstorm ideas remotely and make decisions, online. Share feedback and trade opinions from your mobile device, anytime.
Symptom
Obsessive Context Disorder
Work is like pinball. You're mindlessly bouncing back and forth between email and other work applications. You feel productive, but in reality you're falling further and further behind with every switch of your screen.
Cure
Fewer Contexts, More Focus
Say goodbye to context-switching. Confluence automatically tracks activity that needs your attention, giving you one place to follow the plot. Find the signal from the noise and rediscover your focus.
Symptom
Disruptive Email Flatulence
Emailing is a reflex. Need to share a file? Email. Need to ask a question? Email. Need feedback? Email. Before you know it, all of your team's important conversations and files are trapped in inboxes everywhere.
Cure
Cut Down On Email
Capture the tacit knowledge of your teammates in Confluence where it's never lost. Share content in seconds and pull your teammates into Confluence and keep the conversation flowing with @mentions.
Symptom
Productivity Deficit Disorder
You're testing out your fifth to-do app in as many weeks and you've just created another laundry list disconnected from the work that you need to get done.
Cure
Keep Your Team on Task
Tasks in Confluence are different. They’re contextual. Create and assign tasks to your co-workers right inside your Confluence pages where they have real meaning.
