Snapshot Workshop: How to Collaborate with Competitors
Let me say it that way “how to collaborate with competitors? It’s a very personal decision”. It is so painful that you have to have a high level of emotional intelligence as an owner / founder / CEO to be able to see the long term picture to accept to collaborate with your competitors in the most efficient way to path your future success.
The well-known merger between PayPal and X.com involved two of the generational leaders of today. Elon Musk and Peter Thiel had a conversation in a café halfway between both of their headquarters. This was a difficult conversation, but they made it because they had an open-minded and collaborative mindset.
“Unified team, we were able to ride out the dot.com crash and then build a successful business,” says Peter Thiel in the book Zero to One on when he asked Elon Musk to merge with X.com, the competing payment system.
During the workshop together we discover that resilience as an answer to accepting competition, resilience as collaboration.
