Overview
Thinking about Organizations: 11 1/2 Essays on Higher Education. In these essays Dr. Dickmeyer covers topics often neglected in academic descriptions of effective teams and organizations. Why do teams need people with a variety of thinking styles: divergent, convergent, inductive, deductive, and other ways of approaching challenges? What are the roles that people take within effective teams, besides chairperson, like facilitators, scribes, and ratifiers? How can we help team members understand the impact that a variety of cultures has on the working of a team? What is the optimum project development process for effective teams? What can we do to avoid the bind imposed by standard styles of personnel evaluation? How can we avoid the rigidity enforced by hierarchy in an organization? How can we shift the metaphor for dealing with students from the assembly line to individual crafting? Why are meetings killing us? What's wrong with goals today? Why should we be concerned with integrity in education? How can we use our skills at group facilitation to lead?
