Banning BLOGS..Thoughtful STRATEGY!!!!!!
That day when I tried to access my blog from my company's PC,I was schoked to see the result on my screen.To my amazement,the access was denied. Its not the situation in my company,but there are many companies where the employees are restricted to access BLOGS. The point to ponder is why such a step is taken by the organizations???
Blogs are viewed as "KNOWLEDGE BANK" today ,a place where you can access information easily along with discussing on issues.If we take a close look into the trends, then Infosys,Accenture,Thoughtworks encourage their employees to involve themselves in Blogs.But, there are few companies like mine who sees BLOG as a threat.Some possible reasons could be:
1. Leakage of confidential company information by the employees.
2. Blogs are taken as a source of entertainment when they are not working.
3. Sometimes, the employees participate in discussion forums and use of their time for self knowledge than organization benefit.
But,again the question arises why only BLOGS especially Blogspot.While most of the companies are using Blogs to encourage greater co-ordination between management and employees, its also being viewed as a potential Data Threat for others. The possible solution is to block some blogs which have pornographic or content not beneficial to the employees. Banning BLOGS not only suppress the knowledge of the employees but also is harmful for the orgaizations also.A thoughtful startegy....well,think again!!!
