表明，顾问往往理解组织系统的有机隐喻系统与环境之间的平衡适应。研究复杂适应系统研究中的思想的含义，这些思想表明生命系统共同进化到远离平衡的条件，“在混沌的边缘”。从这个角度来理解组织的设计或正式关系网络中同时发生的相互作用，以及自组织或影子网络。提供插图从作者的咨询实践中提出这样的观点可能会通知OD干预组织文化变革。
Suggests that consultants have tended to understand organizational systems in terms of organic metaphors of equilibrium adaptations between system and environment. Examines the implications of ideas from the study of complex adaptive systems that suggest that living systems co‐evolve to far‐from‐equilibrium conditions, “at the edge of chaos”. Takes this perspective for understanding the interactions occurring simultaneously in an organization’s designed or formal network of relationships, and in its self‐organizing or shadow networks. Provides illustrations from the author’s consulting practice to suggest how such a perspective may inform OD intervention in organizational culture change.
