Barriers to knowledge sharing and the importance of being teachable
The barriers to knowledge sharing include structural factors such as hierarchy, communication rules, standard operating procedures, corporate policies, and cultural norms. Some cultures prioritize knowledge sharing as a moral obligation. In contrast, certain barriers like pride and the lack of teachability hinder knowledge transfer. Being teachable is considered a valuable trait and fosters a culture of listening and learning. Reflective listening and integrating new information help individuals become more receptive to learning. It is important to strike a balance between efficient systems and creating opportunities for innovation and learning.
