Description
A Simpler Way explores a radically different world view that will reshape how we think about organizing all human endeavor. Margaret J. Wheatley and Myron Kellner-Rogers draw on the work of scientists, philosophers, poets, novelists, spiritual teachers, colleagues, audiences, and their own experience to present a profoundly different perspective on life and organizations. The authors challenge many assumptions about life, organizations, and change, while providing inspiration and guidance for readers on their own journey. They describe a new paradigm of life as self-organizing and coevolving, examining five major themes: play, organization, self, emergence, and coherence. These themes are grounded in both the science and philosophy of a world that knows how to organize itself. This book offers a new way of thinking about human organizations and how we can create thriving systems.
