When colleagues in global teams collaborate well, three good things happen:
They get the job done. Good for the company. They enjoy their work. Good for them as people. They become friends. Good for the relations between their countries.
Good for the company. Can that be quantifed? Not easily as observable cause and effect. Human beings collaborating. In and across cultures. That’s complex.
However, we can draw correlations. Colleagues know their work. When they know the cause, they know the effect. Colleagues can quantify the good.
