Klappentext

A million-copy bestseller, The Fifth Discipline reveals how systems thinking can transform the culture of any organisation.

We cannot afford to view organisations as mechanical structures where each worker is just a cog in a machine. On an individual level, this thinking snuffs out our curiosity, and on an organisational level, it inhibits us from recognising the true value of our co-workers. How do we instead create organisations that are living, breathing and dynamic?

In The Fifth Discipline, Peter Senge introduces the principles every organisation needs to expand its creative capacity, nurture new patterns of thinking and learn collaboratively - all to make the whole organisation more effective than the sum of its parts. Mastering the disciplines will:

• Reignite the spark of learning, driven by people focused on what truly matters to them
• Transform mere teamwork into a culture of collective creativity, or 'macro-creativity'
• Liberate team members from confining assumptions and mindsets

Drawing on science, spiritual values, psychology and case studies from leading companies like Apple, Harley-Davidson and Shell, this bestselling business classic is the definitive guide to growth, personal development and management coaching.

Zusammenfassung
