Dear Daniel,
before I sit down to write an E-Mail I put on my suit.
So whats this slant on suits.
I recall seeing Harrison with suit and tie in one of the first os events he facilitated. After that it went all downhill with hat etc.

Have a great day wherever you are

I'm not watching the Vienna event as closely as Suzanne, and some of the
others.

I do notice some things about it.

I'm glad that "people in suits" like Gary Hamel (et al) are now noticing
what is happening, and writing and talking about it. As for "doing", it
looks like the main activity is... arranging conference events.

I'm sad and afraid about the format. It's the standard us-them
conference format. The experts dispense wisdom from the stage, the rest
receive this revealed wisdom.


The structure of the program is a big tip-off to what is happening there...

http://www.druckerforum.org/2013/the-event/program/



By attending this, the attendee authorizes the elevation of the people
on the stage to the status of authority figures.

The title of the event might also tip us off: "Managing Complexity"

To manage is to direct and control. The title therefore expands to:

"Directing and Controlling Complexity".

That's a very interesting title for a conference that is presumably
about emergence in business organizations.
