Overview: Productivity and satisfaction depend on "clear" hearts and "clear" agreements. When the heart or the agreement is unclear, conflict and compromised productivity follow. Self-Management (of emotion generated by stress) is a precursor to effective negotiation and collaborative dialogue about the real or potential conflict. This is a skill one needs to learn. Collaborative dialogue to create clarity takes place resulting in a new agreement that resolves the conflict, or starts the new venture off on solid ground. The new MBA Impacts: Working Relationships; Diversity and Gender Issues; etc. The nature of organizational life will not revert back to a state of hierarchy and order. Managing by agreement is an effective alternative to chaos. It provides tools that serve, enhance, clarify and provide a structure within which one can "make it up as one go along" while fully allowing principles of self-organization to operate. MBA produces clarity about where one is going, and the route one will take, before one moves into action.
