THE MOSAIC MIND

Understanding the Emerging Mentality That Will Destroy or Propel Your Business

The catastrophic failure of the music industry; the disappearing act of newspapers; the meltdown of the financial sector, the mass flight away from organized religion—what in the world is going on with the world?

And what does it have to do with the future success or failure of your organization?

Everything.

As old organizational models splinter and crack, things like “new technology” and “Generation Y” take the blame, but they are not the cause. They are simply pawns in the game, two pieces of the puzzle.

In truth, at the root of all these challenges is a behind-the-scenes revolution in the very way we think. Across every industry and discipline, we are slowly reclaiming our human artistry, putting the fractured elements back together, making connections. We are building instead of breaking.

Our minds are creating mosaics.

This book will help leaders at any level understand the monumental change at hand and provide a framework for how to build an organization that can generate a competitive advantage in the new economy.

In The Mosaic Mind, organizational design consultant Josh Allan Dykstra explores the sometimes strange and always fascinating connections between the seemingly separate worlds of music, entertainment, news, education, religion, and government — and shows how a silent revolution behind the scenes is changing everything.

Look for The Mosaic Mind coming in 2011.
