CIO (Asia): Tainted Knowledge vs Tempting Knowledge
CIO (Asia): Tainted Knowledge vs Tempting Knowledge"The study examines how these comparisons affect the way in which people react to ideas that come from internal or external rivals. Using four different surveys, the authors show that employees engaged in internal competition often respond defensively and tend to ignore the ideas of their rivals (i.e., they see these ideas as tainted), while employees engaged in external competition pay vigilant attention to ideas from outside the organisation (i.e., they find the ideas tempting)."
