When extreme external conditions

COMPETING AND ALSO COOPERATING IS

POSSIBLE AND NECESSARY

Page 15: Catalonian clusters

3. Working with small groups with leaders sharing the same vision

But, how do we cooperate?

1. Creating Trust

2. Developing transformational projects based

on the strategic challenges

4. Searching for your own profitability but also “sweating the t-shirt” for the others

Cooperation is a “muscle”

which develops exercising
