Communicating more effectively.
Communicating is something people take for granted. But some organizations have still not learned that information should not be a closely guarded commodity, but something to be shared freely.

They must be able to assess their employees' morale and prevent personality problems from getting out of hand. In this issue, we asked some top communicators for their tips on promoting better information exchange.
