Regardless of where you are in your entrepreneurial journey, you’ve probably realised that success doesn’t happen in isolation. You must collaborate with other people and businesses to build a successful business.

Whether you’re a standup founder or a seasoned entrepreneur, collaboration is one of the most important skills you must master. Even Steve Jobs, the brilliant founder of Apple Inc., had to collaborate with Bill Gates, his arch-rival in the technology business, to secure a $150 million investment from Microsoft to save Apple from bankruptcy. 

Today, Apple is a $2 trillion company! Imagine if Jobs never opened himself up to collaborating with a competitor. There would be no Apple Inc. today. 

In this episode, I discussed the power of collaboration as a catalyst for recording exceptional business success, how networking helps you collaborate more effectively and two key points to mastering the art of collaboration.

One more exciting thing: I included a challenge for you, my good listener, to work at to develop your collaboration skills.

Give this episode a listen and, most importantly, act on the challenge included therein so you can develop or improve on this fundamental skill that has helped entrepreneurs worldwide create highly successful companies.

See you inside.
