Imagination starts with individuals but flowers
in groups, and it needs the power of an
organisation to bring it to its full
potential Charles Handy
3
Peoplism An economic state where individuals
own and control the most important factor of
production their human ability

Peoplism
Imagination is the means of production
owned by the workers not the business owner
(capitalist)
hired by the business owner in a wage-effort
exchange
Balance of power has shifted to the worker
5
Disorganisation
A future arrangement of the workforce People
want to enjoy the benefits of large
organisations While retaining the advantages of
small ones
6
Rather than in their formal leadership structure
or their legal constitution, future templates
for organisations will emerge from the
cumulative interactions of their workers with
the formal elements of their structure
and operation. The logic of disorganisation could
create new combinations of flexibility and
reliability, of human scale contact combined with
widespread reach and accessibility. Miller and
Skidmore
