Synopsis

This book outlines the fascinating voyage that Andrew Holm & Julian Wilson went on to turn around a failing organisation. The text offers a unique insight into the problems they faced and the critical distinctions they made in transforming a traditional bureaucratic (functional & hierarchical) organisation to a truly flat self-managing organisation (SMO). The transition from seeing an organisation as a machine to seeing it as a receptacle to contain human magic was an essential part of the journey and was the key factor in achieving a 500% improvement in productivity. With many organisations now facing increasing global competition, doing more or less of what they have always done is no longer an option. The high cost of bureaucracy associated with traditional organisational models can no longer be afforded. Only by engaging every individual in releasing their magic can organisations once again have the freedom to "breath" and compete successfully. The book is a useful starting point for any Leaders (designers) interested in Organisational Architecture and how the design of an organisational structure & rule-set, can materially effect the performance of an organisation, in fulfilling it purpose.
