The Fifth Discipline: The Art & Practice of The Learning Organization, by Peter Senge (business management, cooperation)

How can a team of committed staff members with individual IQs above 120 have a collective IQ as low as 63? Why did one-third of the firms in the Fortune 500 in 1970 vanish by 1983? It is because most firms are “controlling organizations.” They emphasize individual work rather than teamwork, fragments rather than the whole picture, and the present rather than the future. So, modern firms need to adopt the conceptual framework of “systems thinking” to transform into “learning organizations.”
