Inertia and Entropy III

Transforming a complex organization is an intensely strategic challenge. 

An organizations greatest challenge may not be external threats or opportunities, but instead the effects of entropy and inertia.  In such a situation, organizational renewal becomes a priority.  Transforming a complex organization is an intensely strategic challenge. 

Leaders must diagnose the causes and effects of entropy and inertia, create a sensible guiding policy for effecting change, and design a set of coherent actions designed to alter routines, culture, and the structure of power and influence.

ACTION POINT: Use strategy to overcome inertia and entropy and renew your organization.
