THE up-dated INTERNATIONAL EDITION OF "Organize with Chaos" (ISBN1852522976) is available on amazon.co.uk and on mb2000.uk (Sad that amazon.us is preventing its customers from quickly acquiring the vital ideas this book offers!) Chaos ! A formula for disaster, or an essential energising companion to any modern business organisation? In this groundbreaking new work, Robin Rowley and Joseph Roevens expose the foundations of contemporary management theory and practice to be outdated and, in many instances, irrelevant. They show how currently fashionable ideas about Vision, Motivation, Leadership, Rewards and Strategy are either only half right, or totally obsolete, for dealing effectively with today's increasingly chaotic global business conditions. The authors offer a fresh approach based on the principles of Chaos theory - previously thought of as an obstacle but now recognized as a vital energiser of innovation, performance and sustainable profit. The book shows readers how they can shift the thinking and the performance of their organisation, and introduces a new concept of "change efficiency". The authors replace the complexity of conventional wisdom with a more simple, natural methodology. Above all, they offer a systematic, practical guide to starting up and running a change programme, which will really work. Organize with Chaos will make intuitive common sense to anyone who is actually involved in running a business. Because it understands, welcomes and fully utilises the natural chaotic dynamics of the real world, it represents and important step forward in management thinking and business development. |
