Publisher's Synopsis
The success of our society is absolutely dependent upon cooperation-based activities, and environments. Regardless of who you are, how you contribute to society, or where you live, almost every important outcome in your life will be affected by your ability to work well with people who ideas may be different than yours. Yet, until now, we have not had a common definition for cooperation.
The Art of Cooperative Intelligence introduces humanity to a standard of understanding: the concept of Cooperative Performance, which can be applied in a wide variety of settings-including yours. By applying the principles and wisdom of Cooperative Performance Science (CPS)-which is to say that the principles are well-thought out, tested, and results-driven, anyone with the drive to bring people together will gain a mental map of the process. CPS allows us to trend cooperation, map it, analyze it, predict it, improve it, and apply it.
If empirical data and historical facts have any validity, then America is potentially primed to be similarly where Rwanda was in its pregenocide history. It is a currently unsuspecting (and potentially explosive) volatile society made up of purposefully politically divided groups who all have the victim perspective that foments a catastrophic event. The Art of Cooperative Intelligence allows us to use common-sense logic to avoid a national future history of long-term shame and pain. From rethinking racism and organizational neutrality to unmasking political correctness and cooperative sabotage, this compact read is saturated with the important elements of everyday personal, professional, organizational, and societal life.
