The more time spent in the corporate world, the more it is realized how true collaboration is an art - an art form that is worth to excel in. We've put together this short survey to come to an understanding how leaders in various regions collaborate with their teams.

This survey is aimed at any person, who is, or has, held a team leader position within an organisation. The purpose is to examine which kind of collaborative behaviors are practiced by team leaders around the globe.

The survey contains 7 short questions, taking no more than 5 minutes to answer. Results will be compiled into a report and published by the end of December. This gives a great opportunity to see how colleagues in different regions prefer to manage their teams.

This survey is conducted in cooperation with Geoffrey James, author of the book “Business without the Bullsh*t” and weekdone.com.
