Hutton J M Working with the Concept of Organisation-in-the-Mind

A  paper presented to theinscape conference, Germany, on 15 September 2000, introducing a way  of thinking about organisation which has  been developed by The Grubb Institute as  a significant tool for leadership and management in institutions.
