Is an organization spherical or pyramidical?

That’s where the essence of the question lies!

Why does a conflicts arise? Why so hard to make changes inside of

organization?• Many would agree that a coded conflict is hidden within

the structure of a modern organization:

• between directors and employees• between managers and subordinates • between functional departments• between an individual and a team• between different colleagues and so forth.

• My hypothesis is simple – the greater part of conflicts arise due to a pyramidical outlook and Social Darwinism, a philosophy which professes that only the best-adapted individuals survive in a competitive battle. This poses a question and an issue. How can we shake free of conflicts which have become instilled in a pyramidical viewpoint and develop a harmonious, energetic and self- improving organization?

Drawing of an organization and reality

• It has so happened that people comprehend their organization in terms of a structural outline. Regardless of what it might be – an international financial corporation, a golf club association or a club of Sunday school principals – the structural blueprint of an organization reflects its management. The structural chart describes functions, delineates the limits of responsibility and establishes subordination.

Finally, when tracing the structure drawn on a piece of paper, we always get the same figure.

This is – the triangle.

The triangle becomes a managerial pyramid in

three-dimensional

space.

The pyramidical structure existed in ancient Egypt seven thousand years ago. On top God - Pharaoh, and down....

All our plans are disrupted by the fourth measurement – time!

• Albert Einstein proved the existence of a fourth measurement – time. Specifically time distorts the other three measures of space – length, width and height.• T h e t h i n g i s t h a t

unevaluated time always disturbs our plans. • T o w h e r e d i d t h e

measure of time or its equivalent vanish from the organizations of these days?17

Darius Radkevičius lecture

Just three thousand years ago, the Greek God, Chronus, was the personification of time. I n t h e m o s a i c s o f Greek-Roman times, t h i s c r e a t u r e w a s depicted as the zodiac wheel.

18

The Greeks introduce the hierarchy of the gods, but in the same time, they create a

democracy

19

The triangle, at that time, was pictured within a circle, a

visualization of what later became, as

Einstein named, “the four-dimensional

space-time continuum”.

19

But Pythagorus (500 BC) did a very

huge impact on western thinking. He

thought that our universe can only be

made of triangles, because that was the most stable structure possible. From that

moment on, the symbol of the triangle overwhelmed that of the circle in Western

culture.20

21

In Western culture the measurement of time

transferred into the clock. It became an attribute of

every town centre. 21

A Greek also introduced the concept of hierarchy. Approximately 1500 years ago, Areopagite raised the

concept which, translated into our language, would mean, “Rule based on holiness”. He argued that this heavenly

system has precisely nine levels.

2222

In the modern culture of the

West, the pyramid became an archetype, a symbol of the subconscious,

which we do not see,

comprehend or question.

The question for

consideration and verification is: how many levels does

your organization

have?

24

The pyramid and hierarchy reinforce an illusion that some one person can become

almighty and all-knowing. The Earth is the c e n t r e o f t h e universe - the first managerial belief wh ich conf l i c ts with the sciences, one which was especially carefully defended.

2525

The human is the centre of the world.Naturally, once the earth became the centre of the universe, the next step was also taken – man is the ruler of the earth and the centre of the world. This is a road back toward the idea of the Egyptians that a human can be compared to a god. Such an idea formed an egocentric outlook for a long time, one which gained a firm foothold in the culture of the United States in the semblance of individual saviours of mankind.

2626

The ideas of C. Darwin, that natural selection gives rise to the best was especially suitable to the philosophy of a pyramidical-hierarchical management for organizations. An opinion took hold that, to best manage a company, each individual must be effectively exploited (the person must not stand idle), and competition must be generated between individuals for the “best” to rise to the top.

The human being became entrenched as a unit at the base of a pyramid, in other words, one of its bricks. What do you want from

the bricks - flexibility, changes?
