You’re managing a non-profit team. How can you create a culture of collaboration?
We use a process called “Appreciative Inquiry.” This allows managers to ask questions like, “can you help me understand how you arrived at that conclusion or result.” It also permits us to create a shared understanding for success. I have found it to be extremely helpful.
