I guess that is progress for HBR. At one point the editor was engaged in serious conversations about OS. But nothing ever came of it. Too far and not invented at Harvard, I suppose.

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??
