In a previous post, we talked about why collaboration is important, but not the how. How can you create a culture where people reach out to their colleagues for support and input?

Collaboration is essential to any well-functioning workplace. But what exactly is “collaboration”? It's the buzzword du jour, but are we using it in the right way? Does it matter? 

Digital transformation, innovation and disruption have been the talk of the nation thanks to our PM’s innovation agenda. The buzz in government is all about digital transformation to deliver better services and adapt to the needs of digital citizens.

In my experience, a traditional publishing mindset within organisations often stems from decades of creating manuals, guides, or state-of-the nation reports that started out as print publications. 

We are well in the throes of digital disruption/transformation across all sectors of our economy, both nationally and globally. I see plenty of reasons to get excited about the future opportunities of a digitally enabled workforce.

The reality of producing a publication is rarely the smooth, streamlined process you envision at the start of a project. As a publication manager, it’s more likely that you’ll face daily challenges that slow down your publication timelines.
