Transparency at the top of organizations
We have seen how important it is for directors to become more emotionally, intuitively and interpersonally intelligent in the Board Room – executive performance depends on this. Nonetheless there are challenges for all of us when we share elements of our personality, our thinking and our behaviour with others.This process of transparency however, does carry a health warning with it.
When we share our tacit knowledge with colleagues, especially at the top of organizations, it will always result in business reward. However, at the sharing or the transparency stage, the process can result in either increased intimacy, a closer working relationship, or it can result in a parting of the ways. A parting of the ways can be in the interests of both the individual and the organization. In fact, the steeper the flight path towards the bull’s eye, the more important this transparency becomes.
Maybe it is politics that gets in the way of this stuff, and because politics in organizations will always be with us, perhaps it is how we go about sharing knowledge and information that matters.
