Excellent point Lisa. Hording info is a classic play on information is power. I like your point on how this power can backfire. So true! Excellent point Lisa.

I've observed co-workers who take that to the other extreme: instead of sharing information, they horde it. Or more accurately, revel in implying that they have access to information, and therefore are powerful people. This approach also can backfire, but takes a lot longer. You're peers will not trust you and that will cost you in the long run. “Information is power” could not be more true.
