Despite some of the most sophisticated computer systems known to
mankind, modern life can be infuriating - and it's getting worse.
But there is a growing suspicion that, despite all the investment
in IT and organization we have seen, we live with the same old
problems we always have done. Why are we still addicted to oil and
petrol despite the disastrous consequences? Why, three generations
after the Beveridge Report, are his Five Giants - Want, Disease,
Idleness, Ignorance and Squalor - still so much with us? Why did
teenage pregnancies go up despite the UK government spending up to
GBP100 million over a decade to prevent them? Why do so few of the
public clocks tell the right time or train lavatories have water in
their taps? There is a growing understanding, not that people are
infallible, or that they are endlessly trustworthy and benevolent -
but they are nonetheless what makes change possible. This book uses
this idea to set out the Ten New Rules for organizations, reveals
where they are working already - with the latest developments in
ideas like system thinking and co-production. It explains the
future in terms of the People Principle: If you employ imaginative
and effective people, especially on the frontline, and give them
the freedom to innovate, they will succeed. If you don't, they will
fail.
