Abstract

Without diplomacy, engaging organizations in building collaborations can be a ruthless activity that involves plotting, infighting, and retribution. Building collaborations mixes opinions, leadership styles, governance structures, committee participation, campus politics and power, and ceaseless debate. Understanding the interface of diplomacy and these challenges is key in garnering respect, participation, and a willingness to collaborate.
