Trust Network I belong to business consultant group, this was a sub-group
within the project formed as we all shared the same skillset and have often
required to co-ordinate our activities, or rely on each other while working on our
individual assignments. We also act as a backup for each other while one is away
on leave. We often formally meet once a week, and informally on need basis, or
just to strength our ties. We trust each other and leverage on each other
knowledge while caring out our work. We feed on each other success, as such
take initiatives to share knowledge beyond the immediate work needs.
Like the group, that I belong, there were many other formal groups such as
management, architects, quality advisors who formed similar groups beyond
their own sub-projects and continue to be dedicated to those group by spending
more time together both inside and outside the work environments.
Communication Network Unlike the earlier two groups, I was part of informal
groups formed just with passage of time, as we all tend to gel well. The group
members were for various other projects. We shared anecdotes both from
personal, and professional lives. This apart from helping us distressing for
alternative channels to get a bird eye view of organization from different point of
views.
