To be more clear-sighted, you have to look the situation with enough loftiness and even some "obliquity". This states the problem of managing those organizations: on one hand, you have to ensure safe management as in performance-driven ones, on the other hand, you have to facilitate innovation as in adaptation-driven ones.The difficulty of this exercise lies in the difference between the two kinds of governance required. date: 2007-02 date_type: published refereed: FALSE citation: Benchimol, Guy (2007) SAFE MANAGEMENT OR DISRUPTIVE CHANGE? document_url: http://cogprints.org/5409/1/Most_of_time_complexity_is_the_result_of_a_slow_evolution_which_is.pdf
