Synopsis
Our understanding of the universe is being radically altered by the "new science" - the revolutionary discoveries in quantum physics, chaos theory, and molecular biology that are overturning the models of science that have dominated for centuries. Now Margaret Wheatley shows how the new science provides equally powerful insights for transforming how we organize work, people, and life. This book offers: an exploration of how the new science can change the ways we understand, design, lead, and manage organizations; an easy-to-read, single-source summary of a wide range of new science discoveries; and light on issues that trouble people in organizsations most: order and change, autonomy and control, structure and flexibility, planning and innovation.
