It’s just not possible any longer to “figure it out” from the top, and have everyone else follow the orders of the “grand strategist”.  The organizations that will truly excel in the future will be the organizations that discover how to tap people’s commitment and capacity to learn at all levels in an organization.” Peter Senge “The 5th Discipline”
