Yi-Tan Tech Community Call #381 - How Institutions Are Changing - 1:30pm Eastern, Monday 2013-01-07

[Jerry Michalski]

Greetings,

In The Institutional Revolution, historian Doug Allen cracks the code on why the institutions of pre-modern Britain, particularly the aristocracy, made sense despite all their weird behaviors (here's a Jeff Jarvis review). It was about trust in an age when measurement was unreliable or unavailable.

Institutions are in turmoil, in industry after industry, as well as in government and non-profits.

Leadership is also shifting a lot.

Together, let's discuss:

• How are institutions changing? Which are the successful ones?
• What's shifting underneath that's causing these changes?
• Are new models of leadership emerging? What are they?

As always, an IRC chat will be available during the call at #yitan.

We tweet as @yitan (and use #yitan as our hashtag). Please follow us on Twitter. This page is on the web here.
