ABSTRACT
This introduction presents an overview of the key concepts discussed in the subsequent chapters of this book. The book describes the design and development of organizations that can release human creativity and imagination–and how a true scientific approach can help. It discusses the human nature; organizational structure; and managerial leadership processes. The book explains the continuous existence of the managerial hierarchy in all post-tribal societies for the past 3,000 years. It provides a solid foundation for achieving a method of making an accurate match between individual capability and role complexity in filling positions, and therefore, also, of laying the basis for effective managerial leadership. The book explains that managerial leadership is through the development of the organization itself. Despite massive efforts by organization and social science experts, only the merest beginnings of an organization and management science have shown through.
