Doing the Undoable, Thinking the Unthinkable, Saying the Unsayable and Driving Your Sensible Organisation Mad with Creative Folly.
Our organisations are in trouble. Beset on all sides by pressure: competitive pressure, market pressure, social pressure, and just plain pressure pressure. As we look at the people in these organisations we see them rotating in a busy, helpless dance - the Jig of Despair - desperately trying to improve the way things are done but constrained by the way things are done now.
Now, with the radical advance of technology there is a feeling that perhaps things might shift: we might break out of the dance. But this will only happen if we stimulate the dancers to change their steps - to become more open, creative and balanced themselves. This is the essential, wondrous role of a new business professional, the voice of the Third Millennium, the Corporate Fool. This colourful and vibrant book describes a role that our organisations sadly lack, and which they desperately need.
