Replying to LO367 --

I have been reading the notes on gossip with interest. I
am working on a project where we have helped the client
apply the Diffusion of Innovations Model (Everett Rogers?)
to diffusing a self managing team structure. We formed
a team of workers not involved in the design of the new
structure and asked them to become missionairies - both
formallyw forming a another team to move throughout the
organization to make home videos of teams and players
working together to solve problems or tackle challenges.
Has anyone else tried this kind of approach?
