How To Share Podcast

In the decades we’ve spent as technology consultants specializing in collaborative software, we’ve witnessed the organizational efficiency and innovative possibilities when teams share well. But more often we’ve seen individuals and groups struggle with the basics of sharing – being vulnerable, knowing how to listen, and understanding that it’s in their best interests to share everything from tools, space, experiences, wisdom, and more.

It struck us that none of those basics were specific either to software or to professional environments. We’re told to share from an early age but never really taught how to.

So we started digging in to the why of sharing and how to do it better.

We know one of the first questions that comes to mind is what kind of sharing are we talking about? Toys? Tools? Files? Calendars? Meals? Space? The planet?

All of it. We do it professionally and personally. In boardrooms and in bedrooms we tease out our willingness and ability to share. We tell our kids to share with their siblings, friends, and strangers all the while we are working out how to do it best ourselves.

That’s what this podcast is focused on: how to share – to the appropriate audience, at the right time, and also understand how to receive when others share.
