More quotes by Peter Senge
In great teams conflict becomes productive.
Peter Senge
The care leadership strategy is simple: be a model. Commit yourself to your own personal mastery. Talking about personal mastery may open people's minds somewhat, but actions always speak louder than words. There is nothing more powerful you can do to encourage others in their quest for personal mastery than to be serious in your own quest.
Peter Senge

Peter Senge

It's hard to imagine any way in which it hasn't changed.They're immersed in all kinds of stuff that was unheard of 150 years ago, and yet if you look at schools today versus 100 years ago, they are more similar than dissimilar.
Peter Senge

Peter Senge
Leadership is about creating new realities.
Peter Senge
When all is said and done, the only change that will make a difference is the transformation of the human heart.
Peter Senge
Few, if any, forces in human affairs are as powerful as shared vision.
Peter Senge
Don't push growth remove the factors limiting growth.
Peter Senge
The gap between vision and current reality is also a source of energy. If there were no gap, there would be no need for any action to move towards the vision. We call this gap creative tension.
Peter Senge
The further human society drifts away from nature, the less we understand interdependence .
Peter Senge
The difference between a healthy group or organization and an unhealthy one lies in its members' awareness and ability to acknowledge their felt needs to conform.
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
We need to be the authors of our own life.
Peter Senge
Perhaps for the first time in history, human-kind has the capacity to create far more information than anyone can absorb to foster far greater interdependency than anyone can manage, and to accelerate change far faster than anyone's ability to keep pace.
Peter Senge
A shared vision is not an idea...it is rather, a force in people's hearts...at its simplest level, a shared vision is the answer to the question 'What do we want to create?
