Sharing
20th May. 2009
... "when work is created but then locked up in a silo so that no one else can do anything but look at it passively, it doesn't reach its full potential."It's been interesting for me to experience just how opposed so many people are to sharing and collaboration. Verbiage to the contrary, like state secrets, ideas and work are not just locked away in silos, they are hidden from all but a select few. The result is often that the work loses opportunities for growth and you have a group of people who go years without any visible meaningful output.
