Organic Management: Creating a Culture of Innovation
by Charles Sirois

Toronto: HarperBusiness, 2000

The old rules of business no longer apply in a world where the pace of change grows exponentially faster with every new and more powerful computer chip, software and telecom network. The power of knowledge drives economies now -- not the power of production processes. Businesses can succeed or fail in the blink of an eye based upon their ability to adapt to change and to convert knowledge into skill and creativity into innovation. But where is the management vision that is farsighted enough to be meaningful and acute enough to understand and explain the forces of change?

Enter Charles Sirois, Entrepreneur, Visionary, CEO.

Organic Management is Charles Sirois' personal, passionate and clear-sighted vision of how organizations must change to continue to be relevant, and the role that management must play to ensure the organization can adapt and thrive.

Organic Management is a vision not only for business, but also for society and education. Controversial, thought-provoking and dynamic, you will come away with business wisdom that will help your organization to grow in concert with the unprecedented forces that are transforming our world fundamentally and forever.

Charles Sirois is founder, chairman and CEO of Telesystem Ltd., a private Canadian group and pioneering leader in global communications. Telesystem Ltd.'s primary mission is to create, develop and manage companies, among which is the well-known Microcell company (creator of the Fido brand).

From its strong position in wireless communications, Telesystem is focused on opportunities arising in the new economy from the convergence of telecommunications, information technology and content. Telesystem has operations in 17 countries and numbers 11,000 direct and indirect employees.

Charles Sirois received the Order of Canada in 1994 and was made a knight of the Ordre National du Quebec in 1998.

Organic Management was originally published in French in 1999 and is Charles Sirois' second book. His first, The Medium and the Muse, about the information highway, was published in 1995.

Born in Chicoutimi, Mr. Sirois lives in Montreal.
