Organizations should establish organizational goals and objectives requiring employees regardless of their level to think as leaders. This permits employees to see themselves as someone who can make a difference in their organization. A coaching system should be established so that employees at all levels can have someone they can help them within the organization. This allows for a better understanding of some of the organizational expectations and also answers questions employees may have in general about their job. Sharing knowledge among employees is imperative to be successful - organizations want to avoid knowledge hoarding. One of the most important tools an organization can have is empowering employees to do the right thing by giving them a voice - employees should have the ability to share ideas and concerns. Leaders in general should be coached to have an open mind - this will help them to develop a relationship with their employees with an open mind. This allows for a positive exchange of information based on collaboration and trust which ultimately leads to a successful organizational environment.
