The idea
Do not protect knowledge inside organizational walls. Connect to outside expertise and networks quickly enough to keep pace with fast-moving knowledge.
This idea is one of the 26 principles in Jim Carroll’s Mastering 2026 series, a framework for adapting personal and organizational thinking to exponential change.
Why it matters
The series treats the principle as an operating discipline rather than a slogan: something to use when assumptions, skills, business models and decision cycles are changing faster than traditional planning systems were designed to handle.
