PlexusCalls: Design and Structure that Serve Values and Purpose

Description

When people who work in organizations help create the design and structures that align with organizational purpose and values, the result can be centers of creative energy that are also productive and enjoyable places to work. Bernard Mohr, who notes design is a verb and a noun, is co-author of a new book, Co-Creating Humane and Innovative Organizations. His colleague Donald de Guerre, who believes workplace environments impact society at large, wrote the book’s chapter “Open System Theory and the Two-Stage Model of Adaptive Action.” De Guerre writes that treating workers as cogs in a big impersonal machine begins a process that “over time creates a dissociated superficial society in which fewer and fewer people vote and we are vulnerable to a new kind of feudalism.”
