I love the answer about creating a collaborative environment to allow collaboration to occur naturally. I have found that commanding changes in behavior works in some cases. But the results from self-selected behavior changes are much more powerful, but take more work up front to achieve. I believe the objection to training was my input since I have heard those exact words from an engineer. It was a shocking statement that left me speechless. That engineer and I have had further discussions since. His objection was more a defensive statement than flat objection to training. I have learned that he likes to be prepared for training, wanting to know the agenda and goals several days before the session. If I pave the way ahead of time, his participation increases.
