Re Re-Inventing Organisations, I was initially very impressed with Laloux's book. Some of the case studies - the Dutch nurses - the French gear machining and the US tomato puree production are inspiring. However they come very comprehensively framed in what I regard as the dubious spirituality of Ken Wilbur which mirrors our 'naturalised' social dominance in yet another a hierarchical godscape.

agreed, buurtzorg is different than a classic forprofit entity (with extractive I mean that, not mining <g>)

please go head by asking James,

    hi Michel,

        i have not read the book but my impression is that it is
        exclusively focused on entities that have extractive practices ?


    I'm not sure.

    Most of them have nothing to do the extensive extraction of
    natural resources, unless we include all organizations, who are
    using products or services whose the ingredients were ultimately
    extracted from the Earth, after a long chain of of intermediate
    companies

    For example. the book features a Buurtzorg, a self-managed
    community nursing organizations in the Netherlands. It's worth a read.

    Btw, the "Plan C for Advancing the Commons Transition in Greece"
    seems to be more important and urgent than ever, given the vacuum
    that rift <http://www.bbc.com/news/business-33531845> in the
    "institutions' may deepen.

    Shouldn't we ask Quilligan to give Plan C a hand?
