From "uni-minded" to "pluri-minded"...interesting

Interesting comment from this post referring to communication flows within the organization, and how it afects the org and its members:
"Here the CEO of Infosys brakes another myth that has hampered so much of the development of organisations, believing that giving more useful information or increasing the skills of your employees may make them more likely to leave the organisation.

It is not an increase of talent that will move individuals to another a company: top talent from any organisation is only likely to leave once they find that their aspirations are not met, that their relevance in the organisation is not respected, that what they feel is truly important to them, their deeper values, are not in line with the organisation's.

The temptation may then be for an organisation to manipulate information and its flows to show itself the way its stakeholders want to see it. It is by maintaining the information flowing and untampered that the real shape, direction and beliefs of an organisation will become evident, allowing a transparency and lack of confused messages that will strongly motivate those who are in line with that way of operating.

Spending more time adapting the company's way of operating than "adapting" its information is what will achieve the virtuous circle of talent retention creating meaningful and long term success."

This is a quote by Nandan M. Nilekani, CEO of Infosys Technologies, India, recently commented at the World Economic Forum in Davos. It provides more criteria to the list of energizers of the "spirit within" , doesn't it?

What do you think?
