Leadership and the New Science
 Is
there a simpler way to manage complex organizations in this turbulent
business environment where chaos prevails?
Dr. Margaret J. Wheatley is sure of it. And her pioneering book,
Leadership and the New Science, has been adapted by CRM as
an inspiring film to help viewers see organizational life from
a brand new point of view. It challenges viewers to accept chaos
as a beneficial force.
Dr. Wheatley is an associate professor of business management,
and a consultant to a wide variety of organizations struggling
to break free from outdated paradigms. She has recognized the
need to step out of tradition and look to new and different places
for solutions. She turned to the new sciences and the behavior
of nature's living and non-living systems for examples. In this
film, she shows how nature itself provides unmistakable models
for creating a new perspective from which greater organizational
effectiveness can emerge.
Most modern-day organizations are no longer efficient because
their basic structural concepts originated in the 17th Century.
The New Science -- the science of chaos, evolutionary biology,
quantum mechanics and field theory -- provides evidence that organizations
can be managed in natural ways, just as complex systems in nature
manage themselves.
Viewers will learn:
- that chaos is a necessary and creative force that creates
order
- how to share information to empower people and organize tasks
- how developing relationships energizes teams and helps achieve
peak performance
