This text discusses the disciplined use of one skill and one tool, applied in infinite ways: knowing how to get what you need to make a decison and organizing and sharing information so people will do something with it. The greatest challenge that people and companies face isn't from the competition, the marketplace or anything else "out there". It is from confusion within our own organizations. Companies have to learn how to manage the ever-increasing complexity that characterizes work for ever-increasing numbers of people. Because despite ever faster and more sophisticated computer power and a decade of right-sizing and re-engineering, work still isn't getting any easier. We're all drowning in information and need better ways to organize, communicate, solve problems and make decisions. With constant change and whiplash timeframes, the biggest investment any company makes is likely to be the time it takes everyone to figure out what everything means so they can make successful decisions. Making the right choices - fast, while everything's changing - is now the hardest part of getting our work done. Make the complex clear, expose the patterns within apparently chaotic changes, and you compete more effectively. Simplicity is an information revolution whose mission is to do just that. It's about creating the "right kind" of order. Order that still encourages dynamic change, experimentation, emergence of ideas, innovation and learning. This thought-provoking guide shows how work and organizations can be structured in ways that create meaning, connections, patterns and knowledge.
