A corporate cure for bad circulation
It is no secret that the efficient circulation of blood around one’s
body is critical to good health. Obstructing this flow can have fatal
consequences. Similarly, efficient circulation is critical to the
health of the body corporate.
I refer specifically to the flow of data, information, knowledge and wisdom to those that need it, when and where they need it.
The
high cost of labour will drive the need to "sweat" more value from the
staff. This will only be achieved if they are empowered to make
intelligent business-sensitive decisions at every level down to the
shop floor. Organisations with poor circulation will suffer the
consequences.
