Collaboration in any workplace involves individuals sharing ideas and skills in order to achieve a common goal. Leaders that put emphasis on creating a collaborative environment improves their organization’s productivity and ensure that every employee has the opportunity to thrive (Scott & Manning, 2022). For this reason, a collaborative organizational climate should always be the goal of any educational institution. Collaborative environments are essential for change to take place in the educational atmosphere (De Jong et al., 2022). Through collaboration, educators exchange ideas, share resources, analyze data, and strategize best options for both students and the growth and development of the teachers. When collaboration is built into the organization’s structure, it results in greater accomplishments compared to individuals working in seclusion (Scott & Manning, 2022). If an organization is not collaborative at its core, it does not mean that it cannot be successful. However, studies have shown that organizations that promote a collaborative organizational climate creates a more connected, engaged, and efficient workplace, where employees feel valued and are more than likely to increase the longevity of the organization and its staff (De Jong et al., 2022).
