Learning about Dynamic Organisations

Abstract

I am a great advocate of learning. I have constantly sought new experiences and viewpoints. I have always been fascinated to look at different organisations and how they work. I have also found it invaluable to look outside the usual boundaries of management for new lessons and insights. In this chapter I want to set out some of the lessons I have learned from traditional and other sources in my quest to better understand dynamic organisations. I share these ideas because they have been so useful in helping me think about organisations in new ways; I hope they have the same value to you
