The Silo Effect: The Peril of Expertise and the Promise of Breaking Down Barriers

The Silo Effect is a groundbreaking book that uncovers the hidden reasons why organizations fail to communicate effectively, leading to costly mistakes and missed opportunities.

Award-winning journalist Gillian Tett provides a unique perspective as an anthropologist, analyzing the problem of functional departments (silos) and their impact on decision-making.

Through eight compelling case studies spanning industries such as finance, healthcare, technology, and government, Tett shows how silos can lead to blindness to risks and opportunities, and how individuals and institutions can master their silos instead.

This book is an enjoyable call to action for better integration within organizations, offering a refreshingly unorthodox and convincing prescription for change.
