Co-operation, productivity, and efficiency are emphasized as people work to achieve, not to control. In an EVO, the focus on contradictions demands new perspectives for reconciliation and collaboration to resolve the ambiguities and dilemmas. The EVO's identity and purpose are embodied in the network for all to access and fashion dynamically, contributing to the EVO's creative tension. It has a unique capability to restructure operations and hardly a single aspect of business is not touched. We believe changing tools changes who we are .
People pay attention to different things, and depend on one another differently.
This is because learning and evolution together are more effective than either alone . It is important to note that by design, problem tasks for learning in an EVO are selected by the population itself as members go about their work. The EVO structures the organization so that employees are forced to solve their own problems. In this way expertise is enhanced and reinvested. We have said that leadership and strategy are the keys to maintaining this tension.
