Если Конкурентная Оранжевая модель смотрит на организации как на машины, то основная метафора Плюралистической Зеленой модели — семья. Послушайте лидеров Зеленых организаций, и вы обязательно заметите, как часто это сравнение звучит в той или иной форме: сотрудники — одна семья

Янтарное «отдавать распоряжение и контролировать исполнение» превратилось в Оранжевое «предвидеть изменения и контролировать ситуацию»,

церковь, армия, школа -примеры Янтарных организаций. Живое воплощение Оранжевых — крупные международные корпорации. Выберите любой известный современный бренд, скажем, Walmart и вы, скорее всего, попадете на организацию, структура, внутренние процессы и культура которой вдохновлены Оранжевым

Современные представители Красных организаций — это уличные банды и мафия.

Тот, кто чувствует себя в Янтарной организации плохо и решает уйти, проходит через болезненный процесс отказа от старой нормы и освоения новой.

Если внутри организации существуют границы и барьеры, то от окружающего мира организацию отделяет настоящий крепостной ров.

Генеральскую форму невозможно спутать с лейтенантской или формой рядового даже издали.

Янтарных организациях изобретены, формализованы и распространены использование титулов, рангов и униформы для подкрепления идентификации

Если Красные организации — это стаи волков, то для Янтарной стадии подходит другая метафора: в хорошей организации все заведено, как в армии. Внутри жесткой иерархии должна существовать очевидная субординация, формализованные внутренние процессы и четкие правила, кто что делает.

Эпоха интернета ускорила появление новой картины мира, в которой предусмотрено распределенное управление вместо нисходящей иерархии.

I'm married to a dear little girl who holds a bachelor's degree from the University of Pennsylvania and a master's degree from the University of Pennsylvania and a Ph.D. degree from the University of Pennsylvania.

Two women? God, man. Well, I'm still living. So clearly I must've gotten away with it, when I did do it. But I don't think it's time to blow my cover now.

These are not dark days: these are great days - the greatest days our country has ever lived.

Ideally a book would have no order in it, and the reader would have to discover his own.

I asked no odds and I give none. A guy got in my way, I run over him.

Newt Gingrich's job to capture the Congress was to give Republican candidates an edge and a distinction from their Democratic opponent. That required a very high profile, some very strong language.

Within the soil of a discouraging season can often be the seeds of incredible blessing, miracles and breakthrough!

I've been trying to pick up painting but it's hard.

The conventional definition of reality, and the idea of 'normal life', mean nothing.

Everybody knows if you don't have an examined life, you go mad.

Sometimes in my tent, late at night, I think I can hear the stars scraping against the sky.

The good things of prosperity are to be wished; but the good things that belong to adversity are to be admired.

The death of Christ proclaimed the justice and perpetuity of his Father's law in punishing the transgressor, in that he consented to suffer the penalty of the law himself, in order to save fallen man from its curse.

I think that Eminem is very talented and remarkably bright, and I actually do like a lot of his music.

Now my complaint is there are only 18 hours to work in a day.

Our two biggest rivals had adjusted their whole season to this one aim of beating us. Of course, it is a big compliment that they were so motivated to stop us but it was very tough to face two matches like that so close together. Suddenly three trophies are down to one.

I was a guy who needed to go to class, because I had some raw talent that I thought was identifiable, when I finally made a decision to be an actor. And yet I wanted to learn how to really do the stuff. You know, 'How do I get to be a serious actor?'

I worked hard learning harmony and theory when I was growing up in Chicago in the 1920s.

To me, it's a little odd to ever think 'model into actor.' I modeled once. I was about as far from a decent model as you can possibly be. I did not enjoy the world at all. I fell in my stilettos quite a bit.

Movies were very important. The art-form of the 20th century.

The people currently in charge have forgotten the first principle of an open society, namely that we may be wrong and that there has to be free discussion. That it's possible to be opposed to the policies without being unpatriotic.

Each time you take a good picture, you have the wonderful feeling of exhilaration... and almost instantly, the flip side. You have this terrible, terrible anxiety that you've just taken your last good picture.

Of all the possessions of this life fame is the noblest; when the body has sunk into the dust the great name still lives.
