2014 CIDCI Forum

Over the past decade or so collaboration has been increasingly recognized as an activity that generates innovation and brings significant value to building projects. But what is it and how does it work? Is it simply a matter of breaking down the silo walls and allowing people to work together, or can we actively foster, enhance, and accelerate it? Is it all art or is there some science available?

In the worlds of negotiation, business management, and psychology a great deal of this science is going on, and it has produced techniques and approaches that can be actively brought to bear at the individual, team, and organizational level to radically increase the frequency, reliability, and value of collaboration. In this session we will discuss these topics with several experts and investigate how this science can be immediately applied to design and construction teams.
