Dear Hemanth<br><br>This is a huge cultural question in most organisations, whether you are in Indai or elsewhere in the world.<br><br>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.<br>
<br>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 <a href="http://hartknowledge.wordpress.com">hartknowledge.wordpress.com</a> 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.<br>
<br>I have taken quite a few organisations through a methodology whereby this becomes obvious and you don&#39;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.<br>

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">Dear Professionals, <br><br><br>Please give me some thoughts on  &quot;Information &amp; Knowledge sharing in Corporate environment&quot;<br>
<br>How do interorganisations agree upon the sharing of business information and knowledge?<br>
<br>How do they make joint decisions on IT investments?<br><br>How can networks champions promote trust and sharing of knowledge?<br><br>I hope these are special challenges in sharing knowledge in corporate environment.<br>
