Some readers have suggested to me that radical management is actually not very radical. Much of its content can be found in basic common sense and old fashioned understandings of what human beings should value their life and how they should interact with each other.
Let’s recap what radical management comprises. People do best what they do for themselves in the service of delighting others. When they are in charge of their own behavior, they take responsibility for it. When they are able to work on something worthwhile with others who enjoy doing the same thing, the group tends to get better. By working in short cycles, everyone can see the impact of what is being done. When people are open about what is going on, problems get solved. Innovation occurs. Clients are surprised to find that even their unexpressed desires are being met. Work becomes more fun than fun.
Is that really radical?
What is sad is that in our society this has become radical. It has become radical for managers to treat other people as adult human beings with whom they have interactive conversations. It has become radical for management to ask themselves questions about their purpose, their values, the meaning of their lives, their contribution to society. It has become radical for managers to continue to explore how they can enrich the lives of others rather than manipulate people as things and make money by ensuring conformity and exploiting the status quo. It has become radical to question and create. It has become radical to explore and discover.
The good news is that radical management is the management that our times our require. The old way of managing is failing fast. Multiple studies show it. A plethora of articles and books confirm it. The dismal business results are hard to argue with: the inability of big business to create jobs or innovate has become headline news.
The only question today is not whether but when. Will the shift to radical management will happen slowly and painfully or quickly and intelligently? If the powers that be resist the obvious, it could take years or even decades. Or it could happen very rapidly.
To help ensure the latter result, read The Leader's Guide to Radical Management 
I find life an exciting business,The point is succinctness of expression.

In last weeks Economist, there's a semi-decent article on reading sentiment from large masses of anecdotal data (tweets, mainly).
