Collaboration for Impact Part 1

In the first of a series of special episodes, we join you from Berin TXL, which is 495 hectares on the site of the former Tigel airport. It is now being transformed into one of Europe's biggest urban development projects, a new district of the city that will focus on sustainability and urban technologies; Urban Tech Republic - their research and industrial park, is already open. It is a collaborative infrastructure with laboratories, offices, a production area, and a free art, culture, and activism space. GUT, a world-class events space, is now in the former air freight hall, and a nightclub called Turbulence has been up and running since July. In the future, homes will be made in this new district, as well as a university campus.

We discuss the importance of understanding our roles in collaboration, the need for aligned purposes, and the significance of clarity and focus. We also explore how fear and ego hinder effective collaboration and why trust, transparency, and communication are crucial for successful teamwork. Finally, we share personal experiences and insights on how to navigate the challenges of collaboration, from individual efforts to larger group dynamics.

Whether you're part of a small team or looking to foster collaboration on a grander scale, this episode offers valuable perspectives on achieving impactful results through collective efforts. Keep an eye out for part two, where we will explore collaboration at scale, taking inspiration from the innovative developments at TXL Berlin.
