The Silo Effect
Why do organizations act in ways that sometimes seem stupid? Why do intelligent people fail to see risks and opportunities that later seem obvious? One explanation may be our tendency to create departments — silos — that prevent us from working together in ways that can unleash creativity and innovation.
Award-winning journalist Gillian Tett examines this human — and institutional — frailty in her book “The Silo Effect: The Peril of Experience and the Promise of Breaking Down Barriers.”
