If we want an organisation of high-performing, productive people, with high collective intelligence, building a culture of ideas-sharing is a big priority. We can do this by: 1) Creating routines & structured opportunities for people to share their ideas 2) Building relationships & connections across boundaries 3) Making it feel safe for people to put forward ideas, encouraging diverse views 4) Role-modelling, sharing our own ideas & prioritising time for learning & sharing 5) Demonstrating appreciation for new ideas 6) Showing impact - how ideas sharing is contributing to our shared goals 7) Always feeding back & following up on ideas jointhecollective.com/articl….
