But a strategy that stays in a fancy PowerPoint presentation isn’t helpful to anyone. That’s not a strategy, it’s a document. OK, you need the document first, as a communication tool to explain the strategy to everyone, but you know what I mean.

Idea Management Team collaboration requires active participation and engagement from your employees. But getting them to be participative shouldn’t be a demand from their superiors. Team collaboration will only be effective if it’s a voluntary action and desire from the individuals involved.
