Technology can give us answers as fast as we can type. It
can also vastly increase communication instantlyâboth within an organization
and from company to company. Knowledge, as they say, wants to be freeâbut if
it’s knowledge that your company plans to sell, or that concerns something that
they want to sell, “free” may not be the optimal price. On the other
hand, if you cut off this flow of informal communication, you may miss sharing
in crucial pieces of information that those who remhttp://www.homeworkminutes.com/question/askain connected to the
informal network can pick up.
Is there some kind of optimal strategy that a company can
employ to receive benefits from informal information sharing (both within and
outside) while avoiding the associated potential costsâor do we just have to
accept that this kind of information flow is a kind of lottery distributing
wins and losses across participants more or less at random depending on who is
where when and who shares what with whom? I’d appreciate both your thoughts on
strategy and any experiences that you’ve had illustrating these situations and
the lessons you learned from them.
