An interesting discussion is taking place on my Gurteen Knowledge Community group on LinkedIn.

"There is no way I share my ideas" : how to modify this behaviour in a corporate culture?

3 days ago, I had a conversation with a friend who told me ironically: "Why should I share my ideas? Ideas are valuable, they give power. If I have a good idea, it will help me in my career, but if I share it someone else could steal it".

Even though it was a joke, I believe this is the kind of attitude we may find in some organisations. And I don't have any answer to this type of barrier!

What would you do?



Well, what would you do? See what others think here.
