Dear Hemanth
This is a huge cultural question in most organisations, whether you are in
Indai or elsewhere in the world.
It is also something you cannot attempt on your own. You will need
leadership from your senior executives who demonstrate this behaviour in all
they do.
In my position at the Dept of Familes, Housing, Communities Services and
Indigenous Affairs the library staff moved themselved into a position of
being information and knowledge brokers (see my blog posting at
hartknowledge.wordpress.com for what I mean by a knowledge broker). The
librarians need to move away from what is usually a black box service to
becoming the networkers and brokers in your organisation. By doing this the
librarians model the behaviour they want to see in the rest of the
organisation.
I have taken quite a few organisations through a methodology whereby this
becomes obvious and you don't find yourself dictating what others should be
doing. The changes in behaviour are not easy to achieve but can be done -
albeit slowly by using story/narrative.
Happy to chat further

Dear Professionals,
Please give me some thoughts on "Information & Knowledge sharing in Corporate environment"
How do interorganisations agree upon the sharing of business information and knowledge?
How do they make joint decisions on IT investments?
How can networks champions promote trust and sharing of knowledge?
I hope these are special challenges in sharing knowledge in corporate environment.
