This book provides a timely and comprehensive response to the
widely acknowledged serious failings in our current knowledge of
organizational leadership and culture, providing an ecologically
inspired approach which unifies knowledge and practice across all
of the pivotal organisational elements of leadership, culture,
teamwork, creativity, complexity and wisdom. Drawing on case
studies from Australia and New Zealand, Branson and Marra argue
that just as ecosystems are systems of connected elements through
which the energy needed to maintain the health of the system must
readily flow, an organisation is also a connected system that
equally requires a healthy flow of energy in order to achieve its
core purpose. Their theory of organizational ecology describes how
organizational connectivity, as revealed by the quality of the
relationships among the people and the parts of the organization,
provides the conduit through which the essential energy (in the
form of knowledge, information, ideas, innovation, and support
sharing) must flow. Through the application of the theory of
organizational ecology, Branson and Marra illustrate how a leader
must grow their leadership knowledge and wisdom in order to develop
the organization's people and culture so that it is fully able to
accomplish the desired vision, mission and core purpose.
