The Coming Shape of Organization from Meredith Belbin, the UK's leading expert on teams, takes the reader on a different and fascinating journey.
His insightful analysis takes us from the faults of typical hierarchies to the new world of restructured, flatter organizations where new sets of problems are emerging.
In the search for alternative systems, Belbin outlines ways in which continuous deployment and career development can result in more effective use of people's talents. He describes the world of the higher social insects where evolution has generated a common set of principles governing organizations at their most advanced. He then suggests that these integrated strengths could be combined effectively with the strategic abilities of humans.
Belbin is always good, even when he tries to play Handy, like in this book.
