Description
 
Ever wonder why there are no managers in the natural world? 

Look anywhere and you won’t find one.  Why do human beings need armies of expensive managers to get anything done?  The answer is absurdly simple in concept: one hundred years ago some brilliant people raised with the notion that the universe is a cosmic machine designed management as we know it today.  They envisioned the organization as a machine with employees as the cogs that requires many mechanics to keep running.
 
A century later, we know better.  We now know that the universe is self-organizing.  Biology, not engineering, is the emerging source of wisdom in leadership, management and organization design. Instead of swimming against the current, we need to learn to swim with it, to build self-organizing companies that don’t need much, if any, management in the traditional sense.

The result?  Highly adaptive companies where employees worry about company profitability; who hold each other to high standards of performance; where the ability to find and quickly exploit strategic opportunities is hard-wired in; and ambitious and capable employees have an open career path to leading market-focused business units.

Management consultant Lanny Goodman has spent almost twenty years developing a comprehensive system for designing and building extraordinarily productive companies in which the CEO has few demands on his/her time.  In his engaging book, The End of Management, Lanny tells a tale of an entrepreneur’s odyssey in which he learns the principles of building a self-managing company.  For any CEO, entrepreneur, senior manager, business scholar or student, The End of Management is a provocative and proven look into the future of business that can be implemented today.
