Discovering the Future: The Business of Paradigms (Second Edition)*
- 1989 ----- color ----- 38 min ----- vhs
- We all develop our own perspectives and unwritten rules--the way we do things--and so do our organizations. The new buzzword describing these rules is "paradigms." They are rules we take for granted--our most basic assumptions about how we live and work. Paradigms help us to evaluate and organize new information quickly. Joel Barker shows that they can often be the No. 1 impediment blocking a manager's ability to think about the future. Examines why, in the history of science, the established thinkers and the prevailing theories were unable to lead to breakthroughs. The leaders will be those who are willing to write the new rules for doing business in the future, and send everyone else "back to zero." (Restricted to use on University of Washington campuses only)
- Topics: (Business Administration, Management)
