"Reinventing Organizations: En guide till att skapa organisationer inspirerade av nästa stadium i mänsklig medvetenhet" av Frederic Laloux är en banbrytande bok som utforskar ett nytt sätt att tänka på organisatorisk struktur och ledarskap. Laloux hävdar att traditionella hierarkiska modeller av organisation inte längre är effektiva och att en ny modell baserad på självledarskap och empowerment behövs. Boken bygger på fallstudier av framgångsrika organisationer runt om i världen som har omfamnat denna nya paradigm, och erbjuder praktiska insikter om hur man skapar mer effektiva och tillfredsställande arbetsplatser. Det är ett måste-läs för alla som är intresserade av organisatorisk utveckling och innovation.

Reinventing Organizations är en av de mest omtalade böckerna om ledarskap de senaste åren. Detta är den svenska utgåvan av den banbrytande boken!

Frederic Laloux menar att vi står inför ett paradigmskifte och att vi är på väg mot ett mer meningsfullt och värdeskapande sätt att driva organisationer framåt. Den organisation som allt fler företag strävar emot är en TEAL-organisation. Den kännetecknas av självstyre, helhet och har ett evolutionärt syfte.

Den passar både stora och små organisationer och här beskrivs i detalj hur det praktiska arbetet mot ett teal-sätt att arbeta går till.

Del I förklarar att varje gång mänskligheten har flyttats till en ny fas i medvetandet, har det också uppfunnits en radikalt mer produktiv organisationsmodell. Kan vi stå inför ett nytt kritiskt skede i dag? Del 2 tjänar som en praktisk handbok. Med hjälp av berättelser från verkliga fall (företag och ideella organisationer, skolor och sjukhus), beskrivs i detalj hur detta nya, själfulla sätt att driva en organisation fungerar. Del 3 undersöker villkoren för hur dessa nya organisationer ska kunna frodas. Vad behövs för att starta en organisation med hjälp av denna nya modell? Är det möjligt att omvandla befintliga organisationer? Och i så fall hur?

Detta är en lustfull handbok för ledare, entreprenörer, coacher och konsulter, full av insikter, exempel och inspirerande historier.

Sagt om boken[...] Boken är tänkt att fungera som stöd i såväl stora som små organisationer. Här återfinns praktiska verktyg för utvecklingsarbetet. Den är uppdelad i tre avsnitt där del ett behandlar hur nya organisationsmodeller uppstått till följd av nya faser i det mänskliga medvetandet. Del två är en praktisk handbok med exempel från reella organisationer. Del tre undersöker hur dessa nya organisationer kan utvecklas. Målgruppen för boken är entreprenörer, ledare, coacher m.fl. [...] Reinventing organizations kan bli ett värdefullt praktiskt redskap i individuell utveckling av ledarskap och förändring av organisationer. Mattias Bjellvi, lektör, BTJ-häftet nr 8, 2017.

Based on a multi-year study with several large companies, Resurgence reveals how some of the most interesting and notable brands in the world have managed to stage remarkably successful comebacks following periods of decline. The core of this book is a smart, simple four-part framework for reinvention, plus compelling advice distilled for general business readers. Yet,it also features fascinating, insider accounts of the change process, with stories from a core group of leaders at companies such as Motorola, Alberto Culver, Harley-Davidson, and others, as they considered the question: How do we reinvent a firm that does not recognize the need for radical change? Three top marketing experts bring a compelling wealth of experience and knowledge to the forefront as they were granted extensive access to the executives at these companies and track how each of these organizations look dramatically different as a result of its changed efforts.

Yet business leaders often fear being labeled as naive if they pursue social good while pursuing profit. That fear can be paralyzing, ultimately keeping them from sharing – and acting on – their biggest and best ideas.When we screen ourselves to present only what’s accepted as realistic within the mainstream, we eliminate the option for positive transformation. So how do you take informed, impactful action and lead your business to be a force for good, considering the rapidly changing workforce and evolving consumer expectations?You dare to be naive.While most people think being naive is a bad thing (especially in business), an intentional, chosen naivete leads to better business and a more fulfilled life. Through reading Dare to Be Naive, you’ll learn how to generate two types of ROI – a positive Return on Investment AND profound Ripples of Impact – as well as:The reason we fear being seen as naive and how to question that fear and harness the positive attributes of chosen naivete: curiosity, trust, authenticity, and optimism.Why doing good in business is actually good for business via real-world examples of evolving, tremendously successful business practices that some might call naive.How to dismantle and evolve your limiting beliefs to achieve less stress, more success, and greater ripples of impact in your work and personal life.A simple framework that enhances your critical thinking, promotes a growth mindset, facilitates deep reflection, and fosters intentional leadership.Practical exercises to help you put your new ideas and beliefs into action with a renewed passion and excitement for seeing the good in people and business.And much, much more.Equipped with this knowledge, you’ll have everything you need to use your influence for good to cultivate a better world.

Presence: Exploring Profound Change in People, Organisations and Society gives the reader an intimate look at the development of a new theory about change and learning. In wide-ranging conversations held over a year and a half, Senge, Scharmer, Jaworski and Flowers explore their own experiences and those of one hundred and fifty scientists and social and business entrepreneurs in an effort to explain how profound collective change occurs.Their journey of discovery articulates a new way of seeing the world, and of understanding our part in creating it - as it is and as it might be. Radical and hopeful - Presence synthesises leading-edge thinking, first-hand knowledge and ancient wisdom to explore the living fields that connect us to one another, to life more broadly, and, potentially, to what is 'seeking to emerge'. Seven capacities underlie out ability to see, sense, and realise new possibilities. Developing these capacities accesses a deeper level of learning that is the key to creating change that serves the whole - ourselves, our organisations, and the communities of which we are a part.

As a senior manager at NASA, Dr. Ginny Whitelaw had access to excellent leadership training. But like most leadership training, it taught leaders from the neck up, not deeply enough to develop the whole and balanced leaders so needed in today's complex organizations. She knew there had to be a deeper, more integrated way of developing effective leaders. There is! Move to Greatness reveals that to lead and live wholly, basic energy patterns must be brought into balance. Out of kilter, these four patterns create the ineffective "buts" in leadership style ("great at making numbers, but hell on staff") and personal performance ("successful at work, but has no life"). Success and failure originate in our use (or misuse) of four fundamental patterns in the nervous system that have been studied over decades: * The Driver pushes into every barrier with speed, directness and intensity and puts a focus on priorities, actions and the bottom line.* The Organizer does the right thing with discipline and order and establishes processes, clarifies roles and assigns responsibility. * The Collaborator swings into playful engagement with life and the people in it and as a leader, the Collaborator is oriented to customers, employees, loyalty and fun. * The Visionary goes with the flow, hangs out in the chaos, and leaps to new possibilities while the Visionary leader thinks outside the box and creates the future. Using these patterns as a map, you will understand people more easily and more deeply, and see how to lead them more effectively. Moreover, you'll learn how to move yourself to your highest potential. Discover your natural preferences and learn how to literally move yourself - and others - to greatness.

Simple practices of mindfulness can enhance our effectiveness and enjoyment in leadership work.Leadership teacher and researcher Amanda Sinclair shows how mindfulness is helpful for all of us involved in the day-to-day of leadership, in those interactions in organisations, communities, schools and families where we are seeking to influence others towards positive outcomes.Incorporating user-friendly summaries of the latest neuro-scientific and leadership research, Amanda invites us to experiment with twenty mindful practices. None of these activities take extra time or require us to withdraw to a mountain cave. They do help us find time for the people and purposes that matter most to us.In a world where we regularly feel captured by a never ending 'To Do' list, expanding demands and depleted energies, Leading Mindfully provides a practical, simple and powerful path to leadership that is not only sustainable but full of delights and pleasures.

Over the past decade, businesses have faced relentless change on multiple dimensions, and the list of the world’s largest companies has changed enormously. The keys to success are likely to be just as different for the new decade. Winning the ’20s analyzes the new competitive environment that businesses face and outlines what will it take to win in the 2020s. To stay ahead of the trends that are reshaping business, leaders need to rethink existing assumptions and retool their companies. Both traditional incumbents and younger digital giants will face very different but equally critical challenges in the 2020s—and would do well to learn from each other’s strengths. This book discusses the new dimensions of competition that will affect corporate strategy in the next decade and how leaders can reinvent their organizations to be better suited for the new environment. The companies that succeed in the 2020s will look very different than they do today—they will have evolved their businesses to harness new technologies and reshaped their external relationships, organizations, and approaches accordingly. Winning the ’20s will help business professionals as well as academics and students with an interest in strategy and leadership answer this critical question for the start of this decade: How should you prepare your company to avoid being left behind and emerge as a winner in a rapidly evolving business landscape?

Praise for Reinventing Organization Development "A hard hitting yet hopeful look at a field concerned with renewal that is in need of renewal itself. This book is full of intelligent questions, provocative appraisals, and prescriptions for action that they serve."-Rosabeth Moss Kanter, chaired professor, Harvard Business School; author, Confidence: How?Winning Streaks and Losing Streaks Begin and End"Wise, invaluable advice that the field and its practitioners should heed if the field of OD is to take its rightful place as an applied behavioral science that can make a difference in the economic and human affairs of organizations."-Michael Beer, professor emeritus, Harvard Business School; chairman, Center for Organizational Fitness"Few disciplines in decline have subjected themselves to so profound a self-evaluation. It should lead ?to a rejuvenation of the field.

This book brilliantly illustrates how blockchain and Web3 are revolutionizing value exchange in society. Blockchain technology sets new standards for transparency, provenance, and traceability, benefiting every stakeholder across the value chain in an interoperable manner. The technology fundamentally transforms industries, verticals, and functions within organizations, enabling decentralized identity, asset tokenization, governance, and enhanced privacy. This book offers a deep yet accessible guide to navigating this new paradigm.—Alejandro Acuña Rodríguez, Blockchain Infrastructure Specialist, CrossmintLean Thinking has its roots in ideas developed for process improvement in the 1900s. Systems Thinking was discussed as far back as the 1950s. Blockchain technology is based on work that started in the 1990s and was implemented soon after Satoshi Nakamoto published his Bitcoin whitepaper in 2009. Together, these three components—Lean, Blockchain, and Systems Thinking—provide a revolutionary force in process management efficiency and effectiveness.This book provides a perspective on the advantages of blockchain technology that is rarely covered in business books as well as specialist blockchain-related content. The focus has been the use of Cryptocurrencies as a store of financial value and as an instrument of speculation, like the stock market. This book shows that blockchain, together with Lean and Systems Thinking can provide multiple advantages for societies and the environment. It can be used effectively to meet sustainable development goals (SDGs).Readers will appreciate that blockchain within Lean practices and Systems Thinking opens opportunities for fundamental organizational transformation, improved strategic decision-making, increased interoperability, and a fairer, more sustainable, and less wasteful world. This book clarifies how the integration of blockchain technology as an organizational concept integrates Lean principles and Systems Thinking. This brings a transformative shift in process design, increasing productivity while minimizing waste across sectors such as industry, public services, governance, supply chains, and social frameworks.
