Open boundaries : creating business innovation through complexity

Sherman, Howard J.

Open boundaries : creating business innovation through complexity - Reading, Mass, Perseus Books, 1998. - xvi, 232 pages: illustrations; 25 cm.

"Open Boundaries introduces a practical vocabulary to help managers understand, analyze, and nurture the creative process by eschewing linear "cause-and-effect" approaches to decision making in favor of an approach that thrives on ambiguity and unpredictability. Showcasing the pioneering efforts of such organizations as Xerox-PARC, Applied Biosystems, Patagonia, and the United States Marine Corps, the authors vividly illustrate the power of complexity thinking in action - from creating new markets to establishing new ways of spreading emerging knowledge throughout the company."
