Episode 29a: Robust, deep-problem-solving organizations
Summary:
What kinds of organization networks are resilient to failure under pressure, and which ones do well when uncategorized failures, even catastrophes, occur? We talk about Toyota recovering from a manufacturing disaster, ambiguous problems, collaborative search for knowledge, Ronald Coase, transaction costs, the Bank of Evil, possible network structures beyond hierarchies, and more. How do we solve problems we can't even describe? How do we model this? Multiscale netowrks will be winners.
Asides:
