Spanning millions of years, collaboration tells the story of how humans emerged as dominant on Earth through a series of genetic accidents, disruptive climatic events, and changing social conditions. Richard L. Hayes delves into how these adaptations enabled humans to work as members of a cultural group, engaging in collective intentionality. Through close social interaction, individuals develop capacities that enable them to adjust behaviors and expectations, leading to mutually determined solutions to problems. The book explores how adults can nurture these capacities in children, how organizations can improve members' performance, and how individuals can become better collaborators. Additionally, it highlights the importance of building collaborative communities to advance mutual understanding across cultures and ensure that collaboration serves the public good.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 485g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 237 x 160 x 20 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781666957914\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Richard L.
