It is characterised by some systems thinkers according to the following attributes:
Perspective: Top-down and hierarchical Design: Organisations divided into (ostensibly) independent functional silos. A practice propagated by Alfred Sloan and James McKinsey Decision-making: Separated from work. A separation spearheaded by Frederick Winslow Taylor Measures: Arbitrary targets analysed by binary comparison Ethos: Control of staff Change: Plans delivered by Prince II methodology Motivation: Control-by-seduction (carrot) and control-by-fear (stick) Attitude to suppliers and customers: Contractual.
Organisations credited with having moved away from the command-and-control paradigm to a systems-thinking philosophy include Harley Davidson and Aviva, in addition to many Japanese companies, such as Toyota, Honda, and Panasonic.
