Abstract: Why do we talk? How useful is it?
Let's make products in silence and find out how talking both benefits and stifles collaboration
What does collaboration really mean?
- In the first 75 minute period of this Silence Experiment session, participants build prosthetic hands for charity in complete silence, noting down each time they have the urge to speak.
- In the second 75 minute period, Our salonniere will help us look at what we wanted to say and what happened instead.
We will pay particular attention to re-evaluating our model of collaboration and deep diving on the things people still felt like they wanted to say -- Did they really? What happened when they couldn't? How did that effect the outcome?
