3 modes of organisation – for conscious choices in organisational life:

a)   The sort of conversation – creative and opening up, yes/and plus appreciative OR debate and critique, yes/but and challenge

b)   The approach to personal responsibility – taking charge or making a request; give or get

c)    The nature of line management – direct or devolve

There is not a good and bad, rather the need to signal and agree which moment by moment.
