Items related to Intelligence Advantage: Organizing for Complexity
Synopsis
The Intelligence Advantage makes available a new understanding of the way
that human beings create organizations. Ideas recently made available through advances in philosophy, science, technology and communication are investigated. These advances foster insight into ways of organizing productive activity that is consistent with the nature of human beings and society.
Complexity is becoming a common word in business literature. Mike McMaster blends complexity with post-modern thought and the work of the interdisciplinary group called the Santa Fe Institute to provide useful, understandable metaphors and analogies, as well as practical design principles and effective management and work practices.
Provides a sense of clarity about what organizations are, how they operate and the kind of thinking that is called for to sustain their survival.
Explores the many possibilities of organizations.
Written in a lively, down-to-earth style.

The purpose of the book - and what is to follow
The purpose of the book is make the case that human institutions are intelligent in their own right and explore the theory behind how to increase that capacity. My new book, available in May, lays out more specific principles for organisational design for increasing intelligence and a "work program" for those who are undertaking that challenge.
