In today’s episode, I want to talk about an idea I call fifth-generation management. 1/ Fifth-generation management is an emerging style of management we don’t know much about because it doesn’t actually exist yet. But it is guaranteed to emerge post-Covid because historically, big sharp disruptions have reliably triggered discontinuous changes in management culture, and it is already clear that this one is doing that.
Great article and I'm fascinated to learn more about 5th-gen mgmt. In the article you said you are pulling together an online course based on this material. Did this ever happen? I can't find anything online
Great essay. Although not mentioned in the text, "insurgency/counter-insurgency" (Petraeus doctrine) seems like relevant concepts with respect to fourth-generation warfare, for which business ramifications are not yet clear. I wonder what you think about McChrystal's approach to business (i.e. Team of teams, concepts like shared consciousness, etc.) and how it fits in the 5th gen thinking.
Thanks for providing this view of business management. I have for a while been trying to make sense of the woke culture’s strong influence on business management. Can’t wait for your next post on this.
