We challenge the way workplaces use “collaboration” and argue that most of it is just independent work with a shared deadline. We map out what real collaboration looks like, why it’s rare, and how to avoid meetings that waste time and strip teams of autonomy. • production issues, missing audio, and why last week only lives as shorts • a mini crusade against LinkedIn AI slop and the idea of reporting 10 posts a day • the cheese ball obsession and why it somehow becomes a lifestyle • “collaboration” versus task handoffs, plus the group project origin story • doers, detractors, and the middle, and how to assign work without getting burned • where collaboration actually happens, especially in code reviews, marketing reviews, and Scrum refinement • the sev one mega call anti pattern where one person does the work and everyone else watches • a practical filter for better sessions: right people, clear output, real decision power join our Patreon for a dollar or ten dollars a month You can also join our Discord the least you can do is share this with your friends Support the show Click/Tap HERE for everything Corporate Strategy Elevator Music by Julian Avila Promoted by MrSnooze Don't forget ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ it helps!
