In reply to Lía.

Thank you for your comments, Lia. We face many wicked problems as I've noted before.

We, collectively, are the solution to our problems. We just have not figured out how to get optimally organized. Network theory, for example, can provide many of the answers. The first step is seeing that we have a problem and that our current work models are inadequate. Doing the same things better will not help. Looking outward, beyond our organizations, can enable cooperative behaviour. Casting off old management models, like jobs and organization charts, is another step. Shifting to a networked economy is going to take cooperation, and that only happens when we let go of control, just the opposite of FW Taylor’s principles of scientific management which have informed us for the past century. Here are my "Principles of Networked Unmanagement":

It is only through innovative and contextual methods, the self-selection of the most appropriate tools and work conditions, and willing cooperation that more productive work can be assured. The duty of being transparent in our work and sharing our knowledge rests with all workers.

Perhaps changing our worldview is the best place to start.
