Two Faces of Mess and Management
Isn’t it that management is about creating organization from mess (chaos)? In another words, good managers thrive on mess. Isn’t it that management is about preventing mess to appear from organization? In another words, management is about complete annihilation of mess. This is what I thought until today when in a local book store I found this interesting book, was intrigued by its title and bought it:
Hardcover edition has thirty 4 and 5 star reviews on Amazon and only three reviews are 3 stars so my intuition says the book should be really good:
I haven’t yet started reading it but I believe from evolutionary perspective mess provides sources of randomization necessary for survival and fitness of organization. If we are self-organizing ourselves then how do we know that we have chosen the best structure and strategy? If we believe we are right aren’t we ultimately fooled by randomness?
