Why are people reluctant to share their knowledge?????????


This is a question every fresher face in his professional experience. There are a very few examples, where the senior is willing to teach his junior everything, those are the lucky few……..

Everyone knows the saying ‘KNOWLEDGE INCREASES WITH SHARING’ and it is so true….nobody knows everything about everything and I would even say nobody even knows everything about the work they do, day in and day out…….so why miss a chance to discover something new while teaching someone else…. we come to know so many new things while sharing our knowledge with anyone, coz if they do not know what your telling them its not necessary that they do not know anything…they may know something about the same topic that we do not know……

At work places, people are scared to impart knowledge…….the basic fear is that the young blood is there to replace me or he will go ahead of me…but the person who is imparting that knowledge is forgetting that the young blood can not replace him coz he will never match his experience. Another reason is jealousy for the new person….in this case also the knowledgeable person is reluctant to impart the knowledge. In this whole process it’s the new person that suffers……..

Doesn’t it give joy to share something  with someone new…..that person will remember you always and will always say that  XYZ taught me this……..so share, it doesn’t get deleted from your brain, It doesn’t cost you anything, but I guarantee you this, that it will only increase your knowledge and command on that subject. In today’s world knowledge is everything….it creates good and better people………….

Still, why are people reluctant to share their knowledge?????????
