cooperativeness = cooperative (transparent) = co + operate + ive + ness
The suffix '-ness' is transparently added to 'cooperative' to form a noun indicating the state or quality.
Etymology
The word cooperativeness comes from co- 'together' and operate 'to work', just like the words cooperate and operator. So, it means being ready and willing to work with others to reach a common goal.
