Later today: A conversation with the wonderful Peter Block about his latest book “Activating the common good: Reclaiming control of our collective well-being”. A book that could not be more timely!

People who talk of leaders
are obsessed with authoritarian thinking.
They cannot get rid of
paternalistic (“power-over”) patterns of imagining the world.
They have nothing constructive
to contribute to organizations or societies.

In the 23rd @BetaCodex_INTL research paper (published yesterday), I invite you to take a closer look at the 1950s and 1960s, when W. Edwards Deming taught the Japanese about production & management for quality: https://t.co/Dj3WTykupn

Practical theory makes people think.
Great cases only make people nod (at best).
Which is why "safaris" to the Silicon Valley or other "inspiring" places are dysfunctional.
Sorry.

I just published a BRAND NEW article about the many similarities and the "one big difference" between two two great thinkers of management in the 20th century: W. Edwards Deming and Peter Drucker. I hope you will find this interesting! https://t.co/ly2bmw1q8H

Like it or not: Your company has EXACTLY the culture it deserves. Question is: How can you "change the culture" if you "cannot really change the culture?" 1st thing to know: Don't believe a word of what "culture gurus" like Ed Schein said about the matter!

Self-organization and self-management: They are NOT the same! Which is why we at Red42 focus on supporting consistent self-organization in companies. And not that other thing. Check out our website at https://t.co/MJsyznrwNu
