T-Shaped people

I was reading a document about how the culture of an organisation has changed over the past 10 years. It referred to “T-shaped” people. “T-shaped” because they are deep problem solvers in their own specialism but are capable of understanding and interacting with a wide range of other specialisms. These are the kind of people that will enable collaborative organisations to come to life and squeeze most life out the collaborative tools that we offer. I agree.
