Synopsis

Cross-disciplinary scientific collaboration is emerging as standard operating procedure for many scholarly research enterprises. And yet, the skill set needed for effective collaboration is neither taught nor mentored. The goal of the Toolbox Dialogue Initiative is to facilitate cross-disciplinary collaboration. This book, inspired by this initiative, presents dialogue-based methods designed to increase mutual understanding among collaborators so as to enhance the quality and productivity of cross-disciplinary collaboration. It provides a theoretical context, principal activities, and evidence for effectiveness that will assist readers in honing their collaborative skills.

Key Features

• Introduces the Toolbox Dialogue method for improving cross-disciplinary collaboration
• Reviews the theoretical background of cross-disciplinary collaboration and considers the communication and integration challenges associated with such collaboration
• Presents methods employed in workshop development and implementation
• Uses various means to examine the effectiveness of team-building exercises
