Danah Zohar – författare

At the beginning of the twentieth century psychologists discovered ways and means to measure intelligence that developed into an obsession with IQ. In the mid 1990's, Daniel Goleman popularised research into emotional intelligence, EQ, pointing out that EQ is a basic requirement for the appropriate use of IQ. In this century, there is enough collective evidence from psychology, neurology, anthropology and cognitive science to show us that there is a third 'Q', 'SQ' or Spiritual Intelligence. SQ is uniquely human and, the authors argue, the most fundamental intelligence. SQ is what we use to develop our longing and capacity for meaning, vision and value. It allows us to dream and to strive. It underlies the things we believe in, and the role our beliefs and values play in the actions that we take and the way we shape our lives.

This highly original book offers a new philosophy and vision of higher purpose for leaders facing the immense challenges of the 21st century. By exploring Western quantum physics and traditional Chinese thought, leading management thinker Danah Zohar develops an emergent, new East/West vision that leads not just to global co-operation but to an exciting and revolutionary global-co-creativity.Taking complex ideas and presenting these in a highly engaging and readable way, this book offers the most recent thinking of Danah Zohar's quantum management theory. It demonstrates how the roots of this new philosophy and sense of higher purpose are both ancient and modern, drawn from traditional Chinese thought that had its beginnings thousands of years ago and from quantum physics, first discovered at the beginning of the 20th century. The new generation of quantum management is characterised by being more holistic, dynamic, and humanistic. Written in a very accessible way, Danah vividly demonstrates the advanced nature and scalability of quantum management by using real-world examples.This book provides a foundation for a new leadership vision and style, based on moral renewal, greater cross-cultural understanding, and global harmony, and is truly thought-provoking for business leaders and management researchers.

Drawing inspiration from quantum physics, innovative management thinker Danah Zohar offers a powerful new model for business thinking and practice. "Quantum leaders," she says, like the systems they have to manage, are poised at "the edge of chaos." They thrive on the potential latent in uncertainty and are adept at unleashing the creativity of self-organization. More important, they are vision- and value-led; they adapt quickly, are unafraid to play with the boundaries and reinvent the rules, and celebrate diversity.Zohar points out that the existing, business-as-usual paradigm owes a great deal to the outdated thinking, assumptions, and values of Newtonian science, which gave rise to the Industrial Revolution. Newtonian thinking assumes that corporations and markets are like machines--predictable, stable, and controllable; they are best managed in a way that eliminates risk and assures equilibrium. Unfortunately, as the global financial collapse of 2008 demonstrated, this way of thinking is as obsolete as the steam engine.Further developing ideas she introduced in her acclaimed Rewiring the Corporate Brain and Spiritual Capital, Zohar has written an inspirational book that will motivate leaders to tap the full potential of their employees, their businesses, and the customers they serve.

This open access book offers a new management meta-theory to replace Taylorism. It presents a new paradigm in management thinking and a new, practical organizational model for implementing it in our personal and working lives, in our companies, in our communities and nations, and in a sustainable global order. It will offer an understanding of why and how “thinking-as-usual” is failing both business and political leaders in these new times, and it will advocate new thinking and new management practices that are so radically new that they turn everything we have taken for granted inside out and upside down. This new management model is called “Quantum Management Theory”, because it is rooted in the new paradigm bequeathed to us by quantum physics and its younger sibling, complexity science.
