and you know that high-level collaboration is the key.

Now you can confi dently and consistently create

the relationships, partnerships, and groups that

Elements of Highly Successful Collaboration synthesizes

Deborah Pruitt’s dual perspectives as anthropologist

and accomplished organizational consultant into six

elements proven to make groups more successful:

consistently producing outstanding results and enjoying

a rewarding and inspiring collaboration experience.

As you work through Group Alchemy, you can take

the leap to the next level and create a group culture

that serves your vision. You will learn the elements of

alchemy that:

• Inspire people to stay focused on results

and give their best.

• Quickly establish the foundation for high-level

collaboration with any colleague or partner.

• Eliminate common hidden barriers to group success.

• Prevent the typical breakdowns and frustrations in

groups that put the brakes on what is possible.

• Expand the impact of every group you’re involved in,

whether or not you’re the formal leader.

• Increase your personal impact

in all your relationships.

With the group alchemy formula you can

consistently generate the communication and trust

necessary for truly successful collaboration—the kind

where people personally invest in the group’s goals and

aspirations and are willing to do what it takes to reach

them. This is the promise of group alchemy, a promise

the author has seen fulfi lled time and again in groups

that engage this method.

Let your group be next!
