Traditional barriers, organization, ways of doing things, (etc) all have one thing in common - they provide a structure that for better or worse, limits change.
After I published my comment, I caught up on a bit of work-related (knowledge management) reading and came across an interesting video that elegantly documents the changes that are happening all around us when it comes to organization, sharing, and creating knowledge.
I'm reminded of a quote given to me by a person who used to work for our company. She would often remind me, whenever a company would espouse a way of doing business, research or anything else as a sacred cow, that:
"Sacred cows make the best burgers."

The KSU Digital Ethnography project has put together some rather clever videos recently around the topic of knowledge transformation. This one's another favorite of mine, similar to the clip I used in my article.
