Most of us use and practice them so often that I just thought of putting across my thoughts around them .What I intend to highlight is that collaboration should be given more importance over specification more often than not ,gaps if any due to this prioritization will be effectively addressed implicitly.
Sometimes few of us are so passionate about specifications that’s we don’t restrict specification limits well and keep elaborating them , it mostly does harm than benefiting anyone. Elaborating specification beyond desired level kills time ,decreases flexibility and reduces our empirical capacity .On other hand linear progress with collaboration leads to exponential benefit towards motivation and engagement leading to organizational value creation .
Collaboration is multidimensional , we shouldn’t restricted it to our peers or immediate team ,let’s take it further to other teams within organization , management and off course customers . Many a times we usually hesitate to collaborate with customers(internal and external ) but with a good mix of collaboration and negotiation (forward looking ) we can get expected outcomes addressing mutual needs and creating win-win situations. Collaboration between stakeholders and development teams helps bridging gaps between expectations and delivery. Collaboration leads to commitment , it creates environment for collective ownership of ideas ,objectives and results .
Courage and respect are important step towards collaboration and i see it hard we reaching out there without exercising them . Making effective use of communication via open dialogue and looking at the bigger picture will smoothen our collaborative journey .
“ Collaboration pays better than individual excellence....Let's exercise it ”
