Collaboration Is the New Competition shows how to take advantage of new ways to analyze complex issues, explore a spectrum of possible solutions, and solve real problems. Priscilla McKinney's groundbreaking process creates more relevant work for each individual, and the subsequent wins produce significant changes for careers, companies, and communities.

Collaboration Is the New Competition demystifies how to choose the right people, time, and place to collaborate. Learn how to make the most of this tool that solves daily problems while also broadening your sphere of influence.

The impetus to write this book was driven by a distinct gap in the business literature landscape and the pressing need for a new approach to problem-solving. Traditional business books often present a romanticized, linear journey to success, but this perspective is far from the reality of the business world. The truth is that business success is not achieved by following a rigid set of rules or steps. The key to thriving in the complex business environment is not formulaic but rather requires a shift in mindset, a new way of thinking, and perceiving problems.

This book responds to a growing need for collaboration in the business world. Today's business challenges are multifaceted and complex, requiring diverse perspectives and expertise. The book emphasizes that collaboration is not about simply bringing diverse voices to the table but about strategic and intentional collaboration that yields better solutions and bigger wins.

About the Author
McKinney, Priscilla: - Priscilla McKinney is the fifth of five girls who traveled the world singing, in matching dresses, giving puppet shows, and going on a lot of road trips. Thirty-three houses, three countries, five states, four high schools, and a degree in Cultural Anthropology later, she miraculously found her way into her most ideal place in the world: at the intersection of marketing, business, and market research. Priscilla's early experiences made her curious about life, people, places, culture, and the interconnectivity of it all. Intrigued by human behavior and our deep seated need to explain our often purely emotional decisions as logical, Priscilla is not afraid to ask the hard questions. This skill serves her well as she tries to understand what makes people engage, why we buy what we buy, and how we justify buying it. Whether a belief, a product, or a service, the human element must be understood for successful marketing.Whether as a mom, a community leader, a podcast host, or a boss, Priscilla is compelled to inspire others to ask these hard questions, take risks and leave behind the status quo to pursue the truth at the heart of each matter. P.S. Don't give her caffeine. She doesn't need it.
