The Open Organization: 2nd Edition Paperback Book – June 2016

The Open Organization - 2nd Edition. The Open Organization is a template for the 21st Century Organization and The Future of Work paperback book. The 21st century launched with great volatility and a level of cultural and global diversity unknown by previous generations. This instability demands new approaches and methods for the delivery of products, services, and ideas. We can no longer afford to run organizations with 19th and 20th-century ideas. The pressures of shifting demographics, culture, and technology require new approaches to organizational leadership and structures. Welcome to the era of the Open Organization. The Open Organization: A New Era of Leadership and Organizational Development, by Dr. Philip A Foster, is divided into three distinct parts; the first explores the foundations of an Open Organization, covering the evolution of leadership and organization theories from the beginning of known time through to the 21st century; the second discusses the elements of such an organization, presenting the ecosystem of an Open System with its structure, culture, and decision-making functions, while the third examines the 21st century organization, questioning ’who should go Open’ and reviewing the reality of creating this type of organization, understanding control and resistance and addressing the matter of bringing about change.
