Will That Be Coordination, Cooperation,
or Collaboration?


Will That Be Coordination, Cooperation,
or Collaboration?
03/25/2005 06:39 PM
The Idea: Three Words: Coordination, Cooperation, and Collaboration, are often used interchangeably. They shouldn't be.

Recently I specified< /a> the requirements for collaboration:

Collaboration entails finding the right group of people (skills, personalities, knowledge, work-styles, and chemistry), ensuring they share commitment to the collaboration task at hand, and providing them with an environment, tools, knowledge, training, process and facilitation to ensure they work together effectively

but I didn't define the term. The term is being cheapened ("collaboration tools", "collaborative environments") to the point where in many people's minds it's indistinguishable from cooperation and coordination, which are less elaborate and less ambitious collective undertakings. How can we differentiate between these terms in a meaningful way? Here are a few ways that I think they differ:


Coordination
Cooperation
Collaboration
Preconditions for Success ("Must-Haves")
Shared objectives; Need for more than one person to be involved; Understanding of who needs to do what by when
Shared objectives; Need for more than one person to be involved; Mutual trust and respect; Acknowledgment of mutual benefit of working together
Shared objectives; Sense of urgency and commitment; Dynamic process; Sense of belonging; Open communication; Mutual trust and respect; Complementary, diverse skills and knowledge; Intellectual agility
Enablers (Additional "Nice to Haves")
Appropriate tools (see below); Problem resolution mechanism
Frequent consultation and knowledge-sharing between participants; Clear role definitions; Appropriate tools (see below)
Right mix of people; Collaboration skills and practice collaborating; Good facilitator(s); Collaborative 'Four Practices' mindset and other appropriate tools (see below)
Purpose of Using This Approach
Avoid gaps & overlap in individuals' assigned work
Obtain mutual benefit by sharing or partitioning work
Achieve collective results that the participants would be incapable of accomplishing working alone
Desired Outcome
Efficiently-achieved results meeting objectives
Same as for Coordination, plus savings in time and cost
Same as for Cooperation, plus innovative, extraordinary, breakthrough results, and collective 'we did that!' accomplishment
Optimal Application
Harmonizing tasks, roles and schedules in simple environments and systems
Solving problems in complicated environments and systems
Enabling the emergence of understanding and realization of shared visions in complex environments and systems
Examples
Project to implement off-the-shelf IT application; Traffic flow regulation
Marriage; Operating a local community-owned utility or grain elevator; Coping with an epidemic or catastrophe
Brainstorming to discover a dramatically better way to do something; Jazz or theatrical improvisation; Co-creation
Appropriate Tools
Project management tools with schedules, roles, critical path (CPM), PERT and GANTT  charts; "who will do what by when" action lists
Systems thinking; Analytical tools (root cause analysis etc.)
Appreciative inquiry; Open Space meeting protocols; Four Practices; Conversations; Stories
Degree of interdependence in designing the effort's work-products (and need for physical co-location of participants)
Minimal
Considerable
Substantial
Degree of individual latitude in carrying out the agreed-upon design
Minimal
Considerable
Substantial

Where do teams, partnerships, think-tanks, open-source and joint ventures fit in this schema? The general
definition of a team is an interdependent group, which suggests that collaborative groups are teams, coordinated groups are not, and cooperative groups may or may not be. Partnerships and joint ventures are both, I would argue, primarily cooperative undertakings, whose objectives evolve over time. Open-source developments can run the gamut among all three types of undertaking. So theoretically can think-tanks, though in reality most think-tank work is solitary and not really collaborative. Even the work of scientists on major international projects is, I am told, substantially individual, with a lot more coordination and cooperation than true collaboration.

The last two rows of the above chart may seem somewhat paradoxical. It is relatively easy to coordinate the activities of a 'virtual' group that must work remotely and asynchronously, and much harder (but not impossible) to achieve virtual collaboration, especially if the collaborators already know each other. But once the 'design' of the collective work-product is done, the implementation work of a coordinated group is usually very explicit, while the implementation work of collaborators is necessarily more improvisational.

So what? Well, in many cases, collective work may be dysfunctional because it is organized as one of these types of undertaking when what is needed is another type. Or, based on a misunderstanding of the nature of the collective effort, the wrong resources and tools are provided, or the preconditions for success are not met. And collaboration is not always a better approach than coordination or cooperation. In situations where the Wisdom of Crowds is valuable (prediction, optimization and coordination problems), independence of 'crowd' members is essential, and cooperative or collaborative processes can lead to 'groupthink' and actually detract from the crowd's 'wisdom'. There is nothing more frustrating than being invited into a supposedly empowered, collaborative team and then being charged with a task that needs nothing more than a good project coordinator.

It all comes down to what you are trying to accomplish. The 'Purpose of Using This Approach" row of this chart is therefore perhaps the most important. A hammer, a wrench and a screwdriver are not interchangeable tools, and none is best for all situations.

A recent article by Richard Stallman on the subject of the direction of the Free Software community provoked a lot of discussion, in particular on whether he is right to push so strongly his principles of Free Software over and above the pragmatic principles of Open Source. In this article I would like to defend Stallman's vision of software, and its place in community rather than as a consumer product, and re-advocate Stallman's assertion that the right to form a community is more important than the ability to use particular software.

05/06/2004 09:38 PM
Analyst sees Intel technology that uses low-power Bluetooth to signal when Wi-Fi needed (3rd item): Rob Enderle visits Intel Labs and sees what he calls a personal data repeater which combines Bluetooth (low power, short distances, low speed) with Wi-Fi (higher power requirements for longer distances and higher speeds). The implementation he describes is a portable device that relays information from an appliance like a watch or PDA; the implementation sounds rather horsey. More likely, you'd see it used in a cell phone or PDA directly that has (in the future) single chip Bluetooth/Wi-Fi and activates the right circuitry at the right time. It's a clever idea to use the low-power signaling, but it's also possible that a Wi-Fi transceiver with multiple power levels could act in the same capacity....

Office 2003 Tool: Local Installation
Source Tool
05/28/2004 01:48 AM
The Local Installation Source Tool is a wizard to help manage your Local Installation Source (LIS) on computers running Microsoft Office 2003. The LIS Tool allows you to enable or disable LIS, and to move the MsoCache folder to a new volume. This download is intended for use by customers and network administrators with LIS issues who contact Microsoft Product Support Services. Local Installation Source is a Setup feature. When a user installs Microsoft Office 2003 from a CD or a compressed CD image on the network, Setup copies any required installation files to a hidden folder on the local computer. Microsoft Windows Installer uses this local installation source to install Office, and the local source remains available for repairing, reinstalling or updating Office later on. Users can install features on demand or run Setup in maintenance mode to add new features without their original media.
