Over the next few weeks, we will take you on a journey - a journey of personal and professional development. We will show you what our three areas of collaboration, mindset and leadership are all about.

soft.fact in a nutshell

As a people intelligence solution, soft.fact enables you to measure human skills in order to provide you with a comprehensive and data-based understanding of yourself and your colleagues. This allows you to actively increase team performance and satisfaction.

Under the term soft facts, we summarize all the features that characterize a person - these include hard facts such as professional skills, as well as soft skills, which include methodological competence, social skills and personal characteristics. The term soft facts also includes the result of group dynamic processes. This includes personal experiences, trust, responsibility, communication, mindfulness, resilience, motivation, emotional intelligence, self-efficacy, proactivity and the ability to learn. By analyzing these dynamic processes in social interaction, it is possible to measure soft facts as well as hard facts.

We have divided these soft facts into three categories: Collaboration, Mindset and Leadership. Here you can find out what the soft facts from the "Collaboration" section are all about.

Collaboration - Let your journey begin

Collaboration is the process by which individuals or groups work together on a goal or project to achieve a common result. It is crucial in almost all areas of life, be it in the world of work, education or personal life. Good collaboration promotes efficiency, creativity and innovation as it combines the strengths and skills of team members, enabling better solutions and results.

The importance of collaboration cannot be emphasized enough. It is almost impossible to manage complex tasks or projects on your own. According to a study by Salesforce, 86% of employees and managers work better together when they have collaboration tools. In addition, a survey by Deloitte shows that companies that foster a collaborative work culture are 5 times more likely to be considered high performers.

Collaboration is therefore essential for the success and growth of organizations and teams. It not only helps to increase productivity, but also to improve job satisfaction and team spirit. Through effective collaboration, obstacles can be overcome more quickly and opportunities can be better exploited, which ultimately leads to sustainable success.

The 5 pillars of collaboration

We summarize the soft facts of roles, motives, working methods, communication and trust under the category of collaboration. This is because they form the cornerstones that enable efficient and harmonious teamwork.

Roles
  • Clarity and structure: A clear allocation of roles ensures that all team members know their tasks and responsibilities. This prevents duplication of work and misunderstandings.
  • Efficiency: Clearly defined roles allow resources to be used optimally and tasks to be completed more efficiently.
Motives
  • Commitment and motivation: If the individual motives and goals of the team members are in line with the goals of the team or project, the members are more motivated and committed.
  • Goal orientation: Shared motives promote a common sense of purpose and a strong team spirit.
Ways of Working
  • Consistency and quality: A uniform way of working ensures that all team members work according to the same standards and methods, which improves the quality of the results.
  • Coordination: Coordinated working methods can harmonize processes and make collaboration smoother.
Communication
  • Exchange of information: Good communication enables the exchange of information, ideas and feedback, which is essential for the successful implementation of projects.
  • Avoidance of misunderstandings: Misunderstandings and conflicts can be avoided or quickly resolved through clear and open communication.
Trust
  • Sense of security: Trust creates a sense of security that enables team members to communicate openly and take risks.
  • Cohesion: A high level of trust promotes cohesion and loyalty within the team, which leads to better cooperation.
