<strong>Ashford</strong> <strong>EDU</strong> <strong>689</strong> <strong>Week</strong> 5 <strong>Discussion</strong> 1 <strong>Collaborate</strong> <strong>Decision</strong> <strong>Making</strong><br />

Collaborative <strong>Decision</strong> <strong>Making</strong> [CLOs: 1, 3, 4]. 1st Post Due by Day 3. Being an ethical leader includes an<br />

ability to work collaboratively with all stakeholders affected by the difficult issues that are often seen in<br />

educational practice. To prepare for this discussion, view the Koschmann (2012) video and notice how he<br />

defines the competing forces within any collaborative effort as collaborative advantage and collaborative<br />

inertia. The Koschmann (2012) video is 16:33 in length and explores the ability leaders have in making ethical<br />

and sustainable decisions involving relevant stakeholders in meaningful ways.<br />

Initial Post: Construct an initial response that explains what the phrases “Collaborative Advantage” and<br />

“Collaborative Inertia” mean from the Koschmann (2012) video. Your explanation needs to address what these<br />

phrases mean to you in relation to educational leadership. Additionally, describe an example from your work<br />

experience where multiple stakeholder groups were required to come together on a difficult decision and how<br />

you overcame collaborative inertia in order to make a collaborative decision. If known, describe how the<br />

decision was carried out and sustained. If you do not currently hold a leadership position, you can construct a<br />

hypothetical situation, use an example from prior experience, or describe one that you are aware of happening<br />

at your school or organization.<br />

Guided Response: Respond to at least two peers. Consider asking questions of peers about their responses to<br />

encourage further conversation. If you have found yourself in the same position, how did you overcome the<br />

collaborative inertia? If you have not been in the same position, can you think of any alternative strategies that<br />

could have been used to overcome the collaborative inertia? As with previous discussions in our course,<br />

though two responses is the basic expectation, for deeper engagement and learning, you are encouraged to<br />

provide responses to any comments or questions others have given to you, including the instructor, to further<br />

the conversation while giving you opportunities to further demonstrate your content expertise, critical thinking,<br />

and real world experiences with this topic.
