Do you want to design new socio-technical systems to support workers in learning how to collaborate? Join us at #CSCW2023 for a super exciting, in-person workshop on "Supporting Workers in Developing Effective Collaboration Skills for Complex Work"!

In this highly interactive workshop, we invite academic and industry researchers to share insights from their work and work with each other to envision an agenda for future research and design of workplaces that support learning how to collaborate.

Yes! Pictures help us navigate unknown futures!

If interested in design collaboration tools for the next decade, please join us!

Lasting impact is about creating a community of research not just a body of research -clifflampe #cscsw2023

🏢💻 The proximity paradox: Working next to your colleagues boosts long-term knowledge sharing but may dent your short-term output. Being in the same space meant 22% more feedback for engineers. The cost? A 23% dip in productivity. More: nber.org/papers/w31880

People who love their work shouldn’t judge those who don’t. Enjoying a job is not a sign of virtue—it’s a mark of fit. Many people don’t have the luxury of finding their passion or the freedom to follow it. If you're lucky enough to like work, don't be smug. Be grateful.

A key to steady progress is prioritizing goals over moods. Whether you aim to get in shape, learn the guitar, or write a book, the question is not whether you feel like it today. It's who you want to become tomorrow. Enthusiasm fluctuates. Consistent action accumulates.

A 14-word summary of this excellent research paper: Want more ideas? Go for a walk. Want better ideas? Go for a walk.
