Three Big Barriers to Collaboration - a podcast by Jacob Morgan

There are three main barriers to collaboration:

👉HIERARCHY
If your organization is built like a pyramid where information has to flow bottom-up or top-down, it won’t do well with collaboration.

👉FEAR
Part of collaboration means speaking up and having confidence in yourself. Sometimes employees are scared, which keeps them from really collaborating or communicating effectively.

👉 OVER-COLLABORATION
This occurs when you need to get someone else's input for every idea and every small thing you're trying to do. Over-collaboration is just as harmful as not collaborating.

We often see these common barriers inside organizations when it comes to collaboration. But if you know what the barriers are, you'll have a good sense of how to deal with them if they come up and can handle them quickly.
