Your company isn’t a well oiled sowing machine or a mechanical watch. You can’t pull it apart and put it together again without destroying its very fabric. Yet this is the way managers talk: 'Reorganising', 'Departments', 'Pulling the lever', 'Hitting the breaks', Downsizing', 'Right sizing', 'Aligning functions', 'Oiling the wheels' etc.etc.
Organisations are living systems, more like the cells in your body, in a delicate equilibrium, constantly balancing between the changes within the organisation and outside the organisation.
