Collective intelligence refers to a community's ability to bring together skills and knowledge to advance towards a common goal. In order to understand it, we must imagine that this intelligence is broader than the simple addition of individual intelligences. In other words, if the conditions are met, then the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
During the PLAY workshop, we identify the many obstacles that may block collective intelligence, such as conformist cognitive biases.
If we look at the animal world, many species such as bees or wolves have the ability to act with a common purpose, sharing skills, knowledge, competencies. This ability may seem as natural in humans, but in reality it faces many obstacles or is not always sufficiently stimulated in organisations. These convergences of spirit can only come about if the interactions between members are sufficiently virtuous.
To reach this state of cooperation and function as a collective intelligence, certain conditions must be met. In the PLAY course, we work to identify these conditions. Together, we experiment with the processes, behaviors and communication methods that can help remove these obstacles and stimulate collective intelligence. We can thus generate virtuous collaborations and innovate within our organization.
