To discussed the 5 Es of Collaboration Fluency

Collaboration Fluency
- team-working proficiency at its
highest level. It is the ability to
work cooperatively with virtual
and real partners in both digital
and non-digital environments to
solve problems and create
original products.

5 Es'

Establish
This stage begins by selecting and
organizing the collective group, establishing
the norms and determining the role each
team member would be best suited for, and
developing a group contract.

Establish skills include:

gathering and assembling the collective group
defining individual and group roles and responsibilities
setting communication guidelines (how, how often, when, etc.)
discussing norms (why has the group been established, what will the outcome
for the groups collective purpose be, how will the outcome be evaluated)
defining the scope of the project
specifying what information is available and important to the issue the group
faces
choosing a leader and defining the scope of their responsibility
drawing up a group contract and establishing performance expectations

Envision
As a group, its time now to examine
the
issue/challenge/goal
together,
and conceive the intended outcome.
Together the group visualizes, defines,
and examines the issue they are
challenged with, as well as what the
intended outcome is.

Envision skills include:

determining the problem
understanding and defining what the current situation is
visualizing a desired future
specifying any information needs
identifying the information that is available and what information is
still missing
educating the rest of the collective
developing a written plan of action (what, how, when, where, and who)

Engineer
This stage involves assembling the nuts
and bolts of the plan into something workable
and applicable to the problem or challenge
the group was brought together for. Its
crucial that everyone works together to
synthesize a workable method for achieving
the desired goal.

Engineer skills include:

creating a workable plan to get the group from where they are to
where they want to be
delegating responsibilities effectively and fairly
creating a plan to guide the team (this plan must be able to
be checked, re-evaluated, and discussed as the work progresses)
allowing for each team members levels of strength, insight, and
creativity to contribute to the plan

Execute
In this stage, the group puts the plan
into action and manages the process,
with each team member remaining
personally
accountable
for
their
contribution (this also means devising a
method for ensuring other members are
held accountable).

Execute skills include:

putting the plan into action, with a focus on a tangible and viable
solution to the problem
pressure-testing the designed product or solution
utilizing the unique individual strengths of each team member
monitoring and recording group progress
holding team members accountable for their assigned roles and
contributions to the work

Examine
At this final and crucial stage the
group studies and reviews both their
process and the end result. The idea is
to determine if the challenge was
successfully met, and also to gain
insights for areas of constructive
improvement.

Examine skills include:

discussing if and how the goal was achieved

pinpointing areas for improvement

recognizing team members
contributions
providing constructive feedback and
criticism

Summary
More and more, working, playing, and learning in
todays digital world involves working with others. It
is the spirit of collaboration that will stimulate
progress in our global marketplace, in our social
networks, and in our ability to create products of
value and substance. Collaboration fluency is the
ability to successfully work and interact with virtual
and real partners.
