This book is also about treating people fairly and employee motivation.  \u003cp\u003e  An anthill can survive and feed itself in some of the most hostile environments. No single ant knows how it all works—nor does it need to. Individually ants are pretty dumb creatures, collectively they are very smart. Human beings, on the other hand, are individually very smart and collectively, well….  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e   In the environment we live in today, never has our ability to ‘pull together’ been more important or more challenged. Developing ways of collaborating becomes a game everyone needs to play. Collaborative Intelligence (or CQ) exists in all groups and is defined as the harnessed intelligence and energy of networks of people. Highly successful organizations are those with the most collaboratively intelligent teams—this is no accident.   \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e  \u003ci\u003eTeaching an Anthill to Fetch\u003c\/i\u003e was written by accomplished business consultant and professional speaker Stephen James Joyce and provides a practical outline of how to develop collaborative intelligence within groups, teams and organizations.
