More quotes by Peter Senge
It takes courage and skill to be unambiguous and clear.
Peter Senge
Like a pane of glass framing and subtly distorting our vision, mental models determine what we see.
Peter Senge
The further human society drifts away from nature, the less we understand interdependence .
Peter Senge
When there is genuine vision(as opposed to the all-too-familiar vision statement), people excel and learn, not because they are told to, but because they want to.
Peter Senge
If there is genuine potential for growth, build capacity in advance of demand, as a strategy for creating demand. Hold the vision, especially as regards assessing key performance and evaluating whether capacity to meet potential demand is adequate.
Peter Senge
If you want real, significant, sustainable change, you need talented, committed local line leaders. If the line manager is not innovating, then innovation is not going to occur.
Peter Senge
By using the systems archetypes we can learn how to “structure” the details into a coherent picture of the forces at play.
Peter Senge
People with high levels of personal mastery...cannot afford to choose between reason and intuition, or head and heart, any more than they would choose to walk on one leg or see with one eye.
Peter Senge
The most effective people are those who can hold their vision while remaining committed to seeing current reality clearly
Peter Senge
Most leadership strategies are doomed to failure from the outset. As people have been noting for years, the majority of strategic initiatives that are driven from the top are marginally effective - at best.
Peter Senge
We need to be the authors of our own life.
Peter Senge
The key to success isn't just thinking about what we are doing but doing something about what we are thinking.
Peter Senge
The world is made of Circles And we think in straight Lines
Peter Senge
When I look at efforts to create change in big companies over the past 10 years, I have to say that there's enough evidence of success to say that change is possible - and enough evidence of failure to say that it isn't likely. Both of those lessons are important.
Peter Senge
When executives lead as teachers, stewards, and designers, they fill roles that are much more subtle and long-term than those of power-wielding hierarchical leaders.
Peter Senge
In a learning organization, leaders are designers, stewards, and teachers. They are responsible for building organizations where people continually expand their capabilities to understand complexity, clarify vision, and improve shared mental models - that is, they are responsible for learning.
Peter Senge
Dividing an elephant in half does not produce two small elephants.
Peter Senge
Few, if any, forces in human affairs are as powerful as shared vision.
Peter Senge
Business and human endeavors are systems...we tend to focus on snapshots of isolated parts of the system. And wonder why our deepest problems never get solved.
Peter Senge
When all is said and done, the only change that will make a difference is the transformation of the human heart.
