One of the most challenging things to do when implementing Collaborative Learning is to help relax the people who have control. The control could be something as small as a report or as big as a corporation. Don’t get me wrong, there is moderation in all things and some things cannot be given up – like accountability. However, there are so many territories that are traditionally held on to. The old mentality was that “The more you control, the more powerful you are.” That is shifting to “The more your share, the more powerful you are.” (I might venture to say it has always been that.)
