Course Information
This one day transdisciplinary CPD event open to all individuals who undertake collaborative activity as part of their role. Collaboration may include working in partnership with colleagues within the organisation or may involve working collaboratively across organisations, for example; through projects, major initiatives such as mergers or in negotiating service strategies.

Topics covered will include:
- Considering the emergence and purpose of organisational culture
- Identifying norms and values related to organisational culture

- Critiquing evolving theories of leadership and their impact on collaborations
- Reviewing the role of the team within collaborative practice
On completion of the event, you will be able to:
