Drawing inspiration from quantum physics, innovative management thinker Danah Zohar offers a powerful new model for business thinking and practice. "Quantum leaders," she says, like the systems they have to manage, are poised at "the edge of chaos." They thrive on the potential latent in uncertainty and are adept at unleashing the creativity of self-organization. More important, they are vision- and value-led; they adapt quickly, are

Unlike IQ, which computers have, and EQ, which exists in higher mammals, SQ is uniquely human and, the authors argue, the most fundamental of the three.

The world as we know it today is one based on the bottom line. Self-interest, short-term gain and isolationist thinking dominate much of our business-led culture. The long-term consequences of this approach are potentially very damaging…

At the end of the nineteenth century, the British physicist Lord Kelvin advised his best students to avoid a career in physics. “All the interesting work has been done there”, he told them. He was wrong. The scientific revolution of the twentieth century has offered a whole new way of looking at ourselves…

Drawing on a solid background in the new sciences, Danah Zohar writes with skill and breadth about the implications of the new sciences, and brings her insights home in ways that are practical and applicable to the management of organizations. Rewiring the Corporate Brain relates quantum and chaos thinking directly to organizational problems and challenges facing corporate leaders…

The Quantum Self demonstrates how developments in modern subatomic physics demand a radical reappraisal of our conventional model of personality – indeed of our very idea of ourselves. Guiding us through the strange and contradictory world of quantum mechanics, Danah Zohar argues that a more participative view of our relationship with the universe is essential if we are to discover our true nature.
