Your ideas are special to you.

You want to get credit for them.

Give the whole group credit and encourage them to work together more.

As design blog Misc explains, the best ideas and breakthroughs are increasingly created by groups rather than individuals.

There is another benefit to bringing different disciplines to the problem-solving table.

A key technique for achieving breakthrough is through contextual juxtaposition.

But remember that putting credit on individuals creates competition between them.

Giving credit to the group can create a “We’re in this together” mentality.
