Robert Waterman, the quieter co-author of In Search of Excellence, highlights ways to make organizations hum. The Adhocracy is organized around solving problems and gettiing results, not functional organizations. The concepts precede the re-engineering craze, and are compactly written and easily accesible for any reader.

This small book packs a lot of insight into a very few pages. It points out the virtues of bureaucracy -- and then shows one how to make organizations function better by adding "adhocracy" to the mix. It also provides some helpful tips about why big initiatives so often go wrong in organizations. If your organization is contemplating any kind of big change, this is a book to curl up with for a few hours. After that, you may well want to get back online and order copies for the other persons whose participation is needed in the change process.
