The Power of Collaboration By James Hungerford, CEO Xibitz Inc.
At Xibitz the word "collaboration" extends well beyond our marketing vocabulary. Our ability to form collaborative relationships and processes continues to be vital to our organizational success. It is important to us that we provide our clients and creative partners with a collaborative environment that provokes the intellectual and creative interaction needed to reach desired business and project goals. Building true collaborative relationships, teams, or even a collaborative-minded organization is not easily accomplished. To be successful in a collaborative process people need to be open and willing to share their information and knowledge, rather than shielding it. To be collaborative requires a whole lot more effort and commitment from all involved. Everyone involved must be passionate about what they do and about what they want to share with each other.
I have gained a profound appreciation for working with others, and I continue to vocalize the value of nurturing collaborative working environments with clients, partners and employees. Through this conviction I have learned to appreciate that "the power of us" can get remarkable things done. |

Xibitz is proud to collaborate with Gensler, a global architecture and design firm, in helping WPP, one of the world's largest creative communications companies, transform two suburban buildings into a constellation of inventive work spaces. Powered by creative solutions, a collaborative process and our production capabilities gained from decades of working on complex projects, Xibitz produced five separate creative work spaces in Dearborn, Michigan for Team Detroit that includes agency giants JWT, Group M, Ogilvy & Mather, Wunderman, and Young & Rubicam.

With design solutions finalized, budgets finessed, fabrication over and installation complete Xibitz again demonstrates its sensitivity to design and value to its clients and partners.
