There is an interesting article in the Feb 09 issue of Harvard Business
Review entitled "Moon Shots for Management" which lists 25 Grand
Challenges for Management. 

I'll list just a few of these and see if they sound familiar to OST
folks:

Fully embed the ideas of community and citizenship in management
systems;
Reconstruct management's philosophical foundations;
Reinvent the means of control;
Expand and exploit diversity;
Reinvent strategy making as an emergent process;
Share the work of setting direction;
Create a democracy of information;
Empower the renegades and disarm the reactionaries;
Expand the scope of employee autonomy
Create internal markets for ideas, talent and resources;
Further unleash human imagination;
Enable communities of passion;
Retool management for an Open World;
Humanize the language and practice of business;
Retrain managerial minds.



Well.....better late than never I suppose. But WAIT - if the main steam
is finally catching on to what we've been talking about for so long,
what's the next prophetic step??
