Strategic Leadership and Systems Thinking by Peter S. DeLisi

This book is about a new strategic leader - one who, inspired by General Systems Theory (GST), envisions an organization in which people and groups work together interdependently across organizational divides to reach a shared, rewarding future. GST has dramatically influenced physics, biology, economics, healthcare and environmental science, but has not as yet had any significant influence on the way companies work and are structured.
A Handbook of Management Theories and Models for Office Environments and Services by Rianne Appel-Meulenbroek (Editor); Vitalija Danivska (Editor)
ISBN: 9781003128786

Publication Date: 2021-08-02

Although workplace design and management are gaining more and more attention from modern organizations, workplace research is still very fragmented and spread across multiple disciplines in academia. There are several books on the market related to workplaces, facility management (FM), and corporate real estate management (CREM) disciplines, but few open up a theoretical and practical discussion across multiple theories from different disciplines. Therefore, workplace researchers are not aware of all the angles from which workplace management and effects of workplace design on employees has been or could be studied.
