Time is ripe for newer, more flexible and responsive, management model collaborative management.

The main idea of collaborative management is horizontal teamwork instead of vertical hierarchy. Such a model allows employees to react faster to a dynamic situation and operate on their own. People become more interdependent " they should rely on each other. Ability to collaboration and mutual assistance, self-discipline and self-reliance is required of every worker.
