The Chaos Imperative: How Chance and Disruption Increase Innovation, Effectiveness, and Success

A business book arguing that chaos makes us more effective in our careers.

Following the booming popularity of titles such as Switch and Made to Stick, Ori Brafman reveals how organizations can drive growth and profits by allowing contained chaos and disruption the space to flourish, generating new ideas that trigger innovation.

In The Chaos Imperative, Brafman shows how even the best and most efficient organizations, from Fortune 500 companies to today's US Army, benefit from allowing a little unstructured space and disruption into their planning and decision-making.

Brafman's approach is a groundbreaking new way of managing company policy and making astute, inventive choices, and can be applied to any type of organization, be they small or infinitely powerful. In our economy's current state of flux, it is crucial that we take risks, think organically and allow a little freedom for improvement to take place, and The Chaos Imperative shows us how to do this with vigour, and in an accessible, practical manner.
