In the last 25 years the rate of change and complexity in our world has increased to the point where traditional, hierarchal organisations no longer function.
As a result, many fail to create value for their stakeholders and experience an increase in stakeholder inequality and social and ecological mismatches. A new and future proof organisation model is desperately needed. The Swarm Organisation model is designed to address this challenge.
"Swarm Organisation provides a very practical alternative for hierarchy as the main driver of control, it includes a clear methodology to capture the wisdom of the crowd, and it off ers a very powerful tool: the Swarm Scan. In this book, scientifi cally proven insights are being made practical for managers. A must-read."
