Publications

  • EVOLVABILITY IN BUSINESS-ENTERPRISE TRANFORMATION IN AN AGE OF COMPLEXITY, 11/01/2024 (EXPECTED), https://www.evolvabilitybook.online/, Through the unique combination of evolutionary biology and management theory applied to business cases, and keeping in mind that organizations are fundamentally human systems, the book proposes organizational evolvability as a new frame to guide enterprise transformation and change. The premise of the book is that transformation is not a one-and-done event but a continuous process of adapting to a dynamic and unpredictable environment. The book encourages leaders and practitioners to view organizations as open and complex adaptive systems and provides frameworks that help them to manage transformations with adaptive grace.

The book proposes that enterprises are Complex Adaptive Systems (CAS), i.e. living systems, and should be modeled and treated as such. This is critical to enhance agility in enterprises, which will help them to deal effectively with the exponential rate of change. The book contains patterns which enable and inhibit agility for the dimensions of people, process, structure, governance, technology and customer. The book also provides specific guidelines on creating a roadmap for change based on the specific context of the enterprise.
