Description
In the first edition of this text, Mary Wheatley showed how the "new science" provides powerful insights into the design, leadership and management of organizations. Now, in this revised and expanded edition, she sheds light on issues crucial to organizing work, people, and life. It is written in more accessible language and adds a new chapter to the book. In "Change - the Capacity of Life", Wheatley explains how the new physics offers an entirely new understanding of change, in which change is affected at the level of identity rather than by isolating and changing one defective part of ourselves or our organizations. In an expanded epilogue, Wheatley adds a chronicle of her experiences since the publication of the first edition and tells about the shift in her own understanding that occurred when she realized that "Leadership and the New Science" not only presents an alternative view of organizational dynamics but challenges people's most fundamental beliefs about the way the world works.
