Searching

Sinopse

"Searching explains how to make the fundamental cultural change required for a desirable sustainable future. It describes the 'two-stage model' of open systems social science in action and covers two major methods: the Search Conference for strategic planning and community development; and the Participative Design Workshop for the genotypical design and redesign of organizational structures. The result of nearly 50 years of integrated conceptual and practical development, Searching shows that by replacing 200 years of mechanistic assumptions with concepts and principles which accurately capture human and social realities, these methods generate intrinsic motivation and release human potentials for change."--Jacket.
