Collaboration
Collaboration is the platform for cooperation across teams. With Collaboration information can be exchanged faster, knowledge can be shared and cooperation across borders is improved.
Group Coordinators and Collaboration Administrators manage the activities under Collaboration.
A Group Coordinator manages the group profile, edits requests to join private groups, privileges, and facilitates access and feed activity. Group Coordinators can delete their groups. As the creator of a group you are automatically the coordinator. You can grant user administrator privileges or revoke them from the members.
A Collaboration administrator has the same privileges as a coordinator. In addition, the Collaboration Administrator manages the posts that users have flagged, view all posts, delete them, and check activities reported as inappropriate.
Groups can be created for teams, departments, interest groups, topics, projects, and so on. There are public and private groups. Public groups are open to all users. For private groups, a coordinator decides who is to be granted access privileges to the group.
These are the five steps that are an optimal start to Collaboration:
1. Modifying a User Profile
2. Finding Users and Groups and Following their Feeds
3. Defining Filters
4. Commenting on, Sharing, and Flagging Posts
5. Inviting other Users to Collaborate
