Breaking down silos means eliminating the barriers that separate departments or teams within an organization, allowing collaboration and communication to flow more smoothly and effectively. In many organizations, well-defined departments and teams can be both a blessing and a curse. On one hand, they provide structure and clarity, but on the other, they can lead to silo formation, where collaboration and communication between departments are hindered. This lack of collaboration can stifle innovation and reduce overall organizational performance. Our research shows how breaking down these silos can improve performance and internal collaboration within organizations.
