Olivier D'Herbemont - Edition Armand Colin - 360 p
The agile strategy for the sustainable transformation of organizations
Boosting collective intelligence is a work of reflection AND action. On the one hand, it explains the theories on the architecture of organizations, the management of complex projects or the behavior of groups. On the other hand, it provides a concrete method of action, illustrated by numerous examples, to succeed in the most radical transformation projects. Indeed, the author proposes to move from the ideology of leadership to which leaders are usually trained, to a logic of collaboration where everyone shares and advances towards a common goal.
The book is prefaced by Daniel Krob, Professor at Polytechnique, specialist in system architecture, and by Alain Bloch, Professor at HEC and CNAM, specialist in organizational intelligence.
"The ambition of this book is to give entrepreneurs a new method to approach their mission, maximize their chances of success, reduce the risks inherent in this type of adventure ... This method, the Collaborative Organizational Architecture (COA), is a break with traditional methods", explains Olivier D'Herbemont, Author and President of the Transformation Agency, BelleAventure.
A book to transform his thought and action
This book proposes to the "entrepreneur", that is to say to the one who wants to transform an organization, to deeply change his point of view on what will make its success. Based on both systems architecture methods and sociodynamics, Collaborative Organizational Architecture (COA) aims to stimulate the intelligence of a system, i.e. its ability to adapt itself to changes in its environment. For the entrepreneur, it is no longer a question of imposing a project on an organization from the outside, but of knowing how to interest an intelligent organization in an idea of transformation, so that it can appropriate, adapt and adopt it.
A didactic and concrete presentation
To help people understand COA concepts more quickly and effectively, Olivier D'Herbemont presents and analyzes many real-life cases. In addition, the numerous diagrams that accompany the presentation of the theoretical concepts allow for a simple and global visualization that can be directly exploited in practice.
A fourteen-question test allows you to diagnose the intelligence of your project.
