The Magna Carta, The Constitution, The Declaration of Independence, The Gettysburg Address, We Are The People, and From Mechanistic to Social Systemic Thinking, by Russell Ackhoff, are must reads for anyone that considers themselves a citizen of Earth, much less a transformational business leader.
I’ll keep this post short so you can get on with the reading. If you have any interest in "design and quality and learning", Ackoff’s 1993 speech at the Systems Thinking in Action Conference will change the way you see the world. If it doesn’t, read it again. I’ll give you twice your money back if you don’t agree. You can download it for free here.
