German term or phrase:
Lauschangriff
English translation:
active listening campaign
German term
Lauschangriff
Lauschangriff auf eine bis heute verkannte Erfolgsquelle (sic)
Es geht um das Konzept "Ideenmanagement".
Im Text heißt es: Es gutes Vorschlagswesen ist gleichzeitig Ausdruck einer guten Kommunikation im Betrieb, eines sehr guten Verständnisses für betriebliche Abläufe und eines sehr guten Verständnisses für Veränderungen.

Es ist mir klar, dass ich mit "bugging" oder "eavesdropping" nicht weiterkomme, weil man "Quellen" nicht "belauschen" kann. Also umschreiben - aber wie???
