Why is collaboration important?
As a creative practitioner, it’s likely that you’ll find yourself working as part of a bigger project. Collaboration allows you to develop more ambitious projects, tap into resources and skills that you need, and take advantage of opportunities and funding that you couldn’t access alone.
But there are some potential pitfalls to working with other people. From miscommunication to creative differences, collaboration needs to be managed efficiently for your project to be successful.
How Bracket solves your problems
We help you plan and manage your projects, create systems for effective communications and get the best from everybody on your team. Bracket uses methods, supported by productivity-enhancing web technologies, to help you iron out problems before they begin and increase your competitive edge. We can help you increase revenue, use resources effectively, and solve problems when working with others.
Bracket makes collaboration easy, so you can concentrate on delivering an outstanding project.
Examples of our work
Includes workshops on tools for communication and collaboration at Decibel Performing Arts Showcase (Arts Council England), Craft Central and The Hub Islington.
Bracket supported the development of a new Mental Health day care service for Project H Design, an organisation that uses design solutions to address social issues.
A toolkit for collaborative projects
We developed a toolkit to help creative practitioners, including the key elements of collaboration, how to ensure effective collaborative working and how to deal with common difficulties.
