| Abstract: | Managers no longer can ignore paradoxes. The art of managing in the 1990's lies in embracing incompatible forces rather than choosing between them. To embrace paradox successfully, both managers and organisations must develop new attitudes toward paradox and to learn ways of thinking that resolve seemingly contradictory policies. Organizations need processes for cultivating paradox instead of avoiding it. And they need new structures that institutionalize the management of paradox. |
