Common items in the companies information flow from the organizational structure and management of ideas through the perspective of the global cognitive theory

Abstract

[EN] Companies have to adapt their structures to environmental continuous changes. In crisis time is impor-tant to identify and appreciate what people can bring to businesses (ideas, knowledge, innovation, etc.) in order to survive by creating competitive advantages and exploiting what the environment offers. In addition, Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) have a deep impact on organizations; ICT are often related to the emergence of new organizational forms, linking technological change and or-ganizational change, which in turn affects people. In this paper we show the relation between informa-tion flows, organizational structure and ideas and knowledge management.
