“Nostalgia is also a trait of the organizations that I call lodges - everything from corporate cultures to religious sects. Their bonding power often exceeds loyalty to family or country because they create intimacy through shared ideals and beliefs, ceremonies, stories, and legends, and depend on it for their survival. The message is clear: Don't question what we're doing. Just appreciate how long we've been doing it.” LongCountryStoriesCultureBeliefReligiousBusinessClearDependsMessagesSurvivalIdealsAppreciateOrganizationNostalgiaLoyaltyIntimacyCorporateLegendsTraitsCeremonyExceedSectsBondingCorporate CultureLodgesReligious Sects Book:Thinking In The Future Tense Source: Thinking In The Future Tense
“Well, years and years ago, I started to ask myself three very simple questions, which dominated my life for many years. One of them was, "Why are organizations everywhere, whether commercial, social, or religious, increasingly unable to manage their affairs?" The second question was, "Why are individuals throughout the world increasingly in conflict with and alienated from the organizations of which they're a part?" And the third was, "Why are society and the biosphere increasingly in disarray?"” WorldYearsWellsThreeAsksIndividualSocialReligiousSimpleBusinessConflictYears AgoOrganizationThirdsAffairManageBiosphereYear OneDisarray Author:Dee Hock
