This article proposes some ideas that can be used to create a more collaborative and innovative culture within an organisation. Useful ideas about both recruiting and integration new staff into the organisation plus thoughts on the physical layout of office space and creating a culture where friendliness is formalised.

Some useful areas are highlighted that form the basis for further reading and gaining a better understanding of the subject.
