Summary of Team of Teams (General Stanley McChrystal)
Book Abstract
MAIN IDEA
The United States Army learned in Afghanistan and Iraq you can't defeat a network with a hierarchy. It takes a network to beat a network. It wasn't until the US Army stopped building a hierarchy and instead built a network that success was realized.
The same is true in many industries right across the economy. The key to success today is not to try and build a better hierarchy. Instead, successful organizations transform themselves into interconnected and effective networks. If you can build a network which is resilient and adaptable but at the same time focused on your overall strategic goals, you can and will succeed. If you can do that, everything else will fall into place.
Efficiency remains important, but the ability to adapt to complexity and continual change has become an imperative. Few of us are criticized if we faithfully do what has worked many times before. But feeling comfortable or dodging criticism should not be our measure of success. There's likely a place in paradise for people who tried hard, but what really matters is succeeding. If that requires you to change, that's your mission.
– General Stanley McChrystal
