Morphology

corporately = corporate (transparent) = corporate + ly

Formed by adding the adverbial suffix '-ly' to the adjective 'corporate'; the meaning 'in a corporate/collective manner' follows directly.

Etymology

Corporately comes from the root corp- meaning 'body', with the idea of a group acting 'as one body'. You can see the same root in corporation, which is an organization or company. So to act corporately is to act together as a group.
