"Conversation convenors" can increase knowledge flow + transparency

Another potential article for discussion: 

I liked the idea behind this blog by Katrina Pugh - author of Sharing Hidden Know-How: How Managers Solve Thorny Problems With the Knowledge Jam

While I like the encouragement - I suggest the author might have "buried the lead" as they say. In approach #3 : "...Look for those who are good at bringing people together, have good networks, and are inherently curious". I think that CURIOUSITY is the key to airing the house, and gaining transparency. Instead of hoping that CEOs ask "what are the blind spots?", let's rally around the curious people and set them to work on asking questions and solving problems... something they're wired to do. Let's make curiosity a prerequisite for the c-suite!
