+ | Risks, problems and rewards tend to be context specific - most of them can't be generalised for all interdisciplinary collaborations. However, there are a few that can. | ||

+ | |||
+ | **Rewards** | ||
+ | |||
+ | * | ||
+ | * often unexpected and more widely relevant outcomes, towards more systemic change | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | * once agreements are reached, more work can be done in a shorter amount of time with people from different disciplines | ||
+ | * a remedy for overconfidence (constant experiencing of "i know that i don't know") | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Risks** | ||
+ | |||
+ | * | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | * it is difficult to specify concrete outcomes beforehand | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | * a mismatch of priorities between research and production, theory and practice | ||

+ | === Some things to keep in mind === | ||
+ | |||
+ | **About yourself** | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | * Be aware of unconscious biases | ||
+ | * Get out of your comfort zone | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | **About your collaborators** | ||
+ | * It is just as important who you work with as what you work on | ||
+ | * Your collaborators are sentient beings sharing a human experience; field affiliations and job titles are secondary | ||
+ | * Find resonances between collaborators. From a place of resonance it is easier to probe the unavoidable differences | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | * Build in sufficient diversity, but also enough overlaps and redundancies | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | **About interdisciplinary collaboration** | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | * Work on the edges between disciplines. True inter/ | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | * In theory there is no difference between theory and practice, in practice there is - Yogi Berra | ||
+ | * Share your sources, processes and results | ||
+ | * Apply adaptive evaluation cycles to increase resilience and heed early warning signals | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | **About the (transdisciplinary) collaborative process** | ||
+ | * Hold space for unexpected things to emerge | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | * Focus on options | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | * | ||
+ | * Do not take your collaborators for granted. Celebrate successes, failures and everything in between. | ||
