Myron Kellner Rogers Bücher

Downsizing didn't produce the increase in productivity many companies expected. The reason, the authors argue, is that we are still expecting human qualities from mechanistic structures - the way we develop organizations depends heavily on how we organize our lives. The authors search for new ways of relating life and the process of evolution to explore how organizing activities occur. They present a different world view that could help us create organizations that thrive, challenging many assumptions about life, organizations, and change. The Newtonian model of the world and organizations, and the Darwinian notion of survival of the fittest are tackled head-on: life isn't based on experimentation, relationships, and diversity.
