There is an interesting article in the Feb 09 issue of Harvard Business Review entitled "Moon Shots for Management" which lists 25 Grand Challenges for Management.
I'll list just a few of these and see if they sound familiar to OST folks: Fully embed the ideas of community and citizenship in management systems; Reconstruct management's philosophical foundations; Reinvent the means of control; Expand and exploit diversity; Reinvent strategy making as an emergent process; Share the work of setting direction; Create a democracy of information; Empower the renegades and disarm the reactionaries; Expand the scope of employee autonomy Create internal markets for ideas, talent and resources; Further unleash human imagination; Enable communities of passion; Retool management for an Open World; Humanize the language and practice of business; Retrain managerial minds. Well.....better late than never I suppose. But WAIT - if the main steam is finally catching on to what we've been talking about for so long, what's the next prophetic step??
