In the accounting sector, sharing information from one colleague to another is a vital element in keeping a company running optimally. This could be between colleagues, cross-departments or with trusted contractors. But knowledge silos often block this from happening, creating or reinforcing knowledge gaps that you might not know exist without a way of measuring.

Put simply, knowledge silos are when a person or team has information or skills that are not being shared across your organisation. The accounting sector specifically is affected by these knowledge silos and it hinders staff’s abilities to work at their highest level.
