If you haven't already come across it, Ralph Stacey's "Managing The Unknowable--Strategic Boundaries Between Order and Chaos in Organizations" has much to say about what you are discovering. "The Unshackled Organization---Facing The Challenge of Unpredictability Through Spontaneous Reorganization" by Jeffrey Goldstein is also a pertinent read. <BR>
