No Future?

Good diagram depicting types of knowledge sharing (and non-sharing). My organization, like most, I suppose, belongs in the fourth group: the "knowledge fortress," where knowledge is hoarded against external threats, and where sharing is encouraged only though building cross functional teams - hence our emphasis on inter-group collaboration, and also on collaboration with selected companies and universities. But my sense of knowledge sharing is more like the first or second groups, where knowledge sharing occurs through a (wide) network. Sharing knowledge with only select groups to me runs counter to the idea of knowledge sharing at all. In the end, what matters is, how can the knowledge best serve my employers, the people of Canada? And my belief is that it serves them best if it is shared with them.
