Disintermediate
in a tough, compet-tive world, it is crucial for ceos to have direct and forthright conversations with clients and suppliers. to do that effectively, they have to disintermediate their direct reports and even their techies, which means that they will be able to get accurate information from the field without it being filtered or biased, say, by their direct reports who may only want to tell their ceo what they think he or she wants to hear.
“by using social media tools like twitter themselves, ceos can disintermediate everyone from the data stream. they can connect directly with customers, clients, suppliers and others and hear unfiltered reports of what is really going on in their enterprises. just as importantly, they can make their views known to their followers and stakeholder group without it being filtered by their pr people or the media. in times of crisis, this might save the organization.”
