A New Word--Capitalarchy

Capitalarchy--I was on a blog for a good Toledo Ohio Writer and there was a discussion about the next steps for our free world and I had some thoughts about what might be next. I am putting it out there for discussion and certainly not to coin any new term. I also like opportunities to share Margaret Wheatley's thoughts on change and leadership at any opportunity.

My Thought--Actually the next step is capitalarchy- The fusion of the individuality of capitalism and the anarchistic notion of no bosses. Instead, companies will use self managed teams with little leadership hierarchy.This step in capitalism will create organizations that remain small, networked with other like minded companies as partners and suppliers, managed in a cell structure where all parts work to better the whole.

The organizations will stand for something more than "good business" and actually work with others to change the face of the current world.

Here are a few clips from Margaret Wheatly--"We see the world through who we are, or, as expressed by the poet Michael Chitwood: "What you notice becomes your life." Since no two people are alike, no two people have exactly the same interpretation of what's going on. Yet at work and at home we act as if others see what we see and assign the same meaning as we do to events. We sit in a meeting and watch something happen and just assume that most people in that room, or at least those we trust, saw the same thing.But if we stopped to compare further, we'd soon discover significant and useful differences in what we saw and how we interpreted the situation.As we work with this principle, we begin to realize that arguing about who's right and who's wrong is a waste of time. If we engage with colleagues to share perceptions, if we expect and even seek out the great diversity of interpretations that exist, we learn and change."

Any thoughts, comments, questions?
