Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Book VIIMetaphors We Live By: Control, Order, & UncertaintyEvery system is built on an assumption that the future will cooperate.It rarely does.Plans outlive the conditions that made them sensible.Rules survive the problems they were written to solve.Metrics replace the goals they were des…igned to measure.And the people inside these systems adapt.>Metaphors We Live By: Control, Order, & Uncertainty is a collection of forty essays examining how systems shape behavior, why order tends to become its own purpose, and what happens when the structures built to eliminate uncertainty produce it instead.Inside, you will explore: - Why plans become identity long after they stop describing reality- How metrics quietly replace the goals they were built to serve- Why the person who maintains the broken machine is invisible until they leave- How efficiency removes exactly the slack that resilience requires- Why information arrives at the top already translated into what people wanted to hear- What systems optimize for when no one is watching the incentivesThis is not a management framework.>It is a series of observations about the gap between how systems are designed and how they actually behave. And why that gap is so difficult to see from inside.For those who work inside institutions.Or who have wondered why changing the people never seems to change the system.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Book VIIMetaphors We Live By: Control, Order, & UncertaintyEvery system is built on an assumption that the future will cooperate.It rarely does.Plans outlive the conditions that made them sensible.Rules survive the problems they were written to solve.Metrics replace the goals they were desi…gned to measure.And the people inside these systems adapt.Not to reality, but to the system's version of it. Metaphors We Live By: Control, Order, & Uncertainty is a collection of forty essays examining how systems shape behavior, why order tends to become its own purpose, and what happens when the structures built to eliminate uncertainty produce it instead.Inside, you will explore: Why plans become identity long after they stop describing realityHow metrics quietly replace the goals they were built to serveWhy the person who maintains the broken machine is invisible until they leaveHow efficiency removes exactly the slack that resilience requiresWhy information arrives at the top already translated into what people wanted to hearWhat systems optimize for when no one is watching the incentivesThis is not a management framework.This is not a theory of organizational failure. It is a series of observations about the gap between how systems are designed and how they actually behave. And why that gap is so difficult to see from inside.For those who work inside institutions.Or who have wondered why changing the people never seems to change the system.
