Games Paper (original 1992)

HEADLINE: Compete and Succeed in a Fast-paced, Ever-changing Environment.

We have found that we can examine rigid or complex situations, such as business organizations or the institutions of a nation, with basic distinctions from the field of games in a way in which the complexity dissolves and that which formerly appeared as permanent shows the possibility of being changed.

Why Read:

Examining our practices and institutions with these distinctions allows us to see first that these and other aspects of our lives are not permanently fixed and are open to being modified. We can dissolve the rigidities that have confined us and invent new games in a world that is no longer so complex. We can see that we have the capacity for modifying those games in which we participate, and for inventing new and more satisfying games. We can shift out of moods of resignation and resentment and adopt ambition and ownership as a permanent stance in life, both toward our own future and the future of the organizations in which we live and work.
