Summary:
We have entered an age of disruption. Financial collapse, climate change, resource depletion, and a growing gap between rich and poor are but a few of the signs. Otto Scharmer and
Katrin
Kaufer
ask, why do we collectively create results nobody wants? Meeting the challenges of this century requires updating our economic logic and operating system from an obsolete "ego-system" focused entirely on the well-being of oneself to an eco-system awareness that emphasizes the well-being of the whole. Dr. C. Otto Scharmer is a Senior Lecturer at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). He introduced the concept of 'presencing' -- learning from the emerging future -- in his books Theory U and Presence. This book applies Theory U to the transformation of business, society, and self. More information about Scharmer and his work can be found at: www.ottoscharmer.com and www.presencing.com --Provided by publisher.
