The title metaphor conveys the core concept: though a starfish and a spider have similar shapes, their internal structure is dramatically different—a decapitated spider inevitably dies, while a starfish can regenerate itself from a single amputated leg. In the same way, decentralized organizations, like the Internet, the Apache Indian tribe and Alcoholics Anonymous, are made up of many smaller units capable of operating, growing and multiplying independently of each other, making it very difficult for a rival force to control or defeat them. Despite familiar examples—eBay, Napster and the Toyota assembly line, for example—there are fresh insights, such as the authors' three techniques for combating a decentralized competitor (drive change in your competitors' ideology, force them to become centralized or decentralize yourself). The authors also analyze one of today's most worrisome "starfish" organizations—al-Qaeda—though that group undermines the authors' point that the power of leaderless groups helps to demonstrate the essential goodness and trustworthiness of human beings.

向海星学管理
jerryyue

岳占仁/文 www.ceocio.com.cn 海星和蜘蛛看起来有些想像，都是有一个中央部分，从中央辐射出一些脚（海星叫腕）。如果砍掉蜘蛛的几只脚，或许它还能存活，但是它的行动已然受到影响，如果砍掉蜘蛛的头，它就必死无疑了。但是同样的事情发生在海星身上会怎么样呢？首先海星根本就没有头。而如果把海星撕成几块抛入......
