Introduction

Human beings and their creating capabilities are the primary source of competitive advantage,
hence, organizational configuration and management choices must reflect the dynamics of

creativity. Organizations cannot stay/sustain the pressure of competition unless environment
ignites creativity, conserve/nurture ideas and translate the ideas into action. Ideas, initiatives
and creativity comes from those who feel free, and are convinced that their jobs are worth doing.
Today, organizations have to focus on decentralized communication, network culture and
support freedom of expression, failing which it may be regarded as useless.
Change and learning are built right into the same fabric. What it might take for a whole
organization to learn it would be the ability of all individuals to change and learn and learn to
change. Unless the organization and its people change, it is not possible to cope up with turbulent
time and build our future.
Today’s illusions that power and authority can produce results are over.

The organization which is willing to take risks, pragmatic in nature, has defi nite purpose,
clear direction and devoid of cookbook approach can sustain itself unpredictable/competitive
environment.
