More than global corporations or countries, illegal production and trade groups have successfully adopted the much-advocated innovative practices of flattening, self-organizing, adapting and scaling.
Fortunately, he instead builds vast wireless networks of self-organizing, millimeter-size sensors.
Now an analogous message emerges here in politics: a campaign based on self-organizing teams with a laser-like focus on meeting the needs of individual voters is also the future of politics.
Folks should learn a bit about modern org leadership, including basic concepts like slack, 20% free time, systems engineering, complex adaptive systems, self-organizing systems, emergence, Lean-Agile, Kanban, Scrum, Lean Startup, Radical Management, etc.
Improvements such as introducing self-organizing teams may be tolerated for a period, particularly if they appear to make money in the short run or if they can be used to solve a specific problem.
Agile software development comprises a set of management practices and values based on customer focus achieved through iterative and incremental development, and where requirements and solutions evolve through collaboration between self-organizing, cross-functional teams and their customers.
FORBES: How Manufacturing Can Learn From Software To Become Agile
Those managing the work had to shift from being controllers of individuals to enablers of self-organizing teams, with responsibility for establishing priorities in a timely fashion and removing impediments as they are identified, rather than controlling each worker.
It will require a different goal (adding value for customers), a different role for managers (enabling self-organizing teams), a different way of coordinating work (dynamic linking), different values (continuous improvement and radical transparency) and different communications (horizontal conversations).

ZigBee is a protocol that works on the 802.15.4 spectrum (WiFi is also known as 802.11 for its slice of spectrum.) As a short-range, low-power protocol, ZigBee is suited for two-way communications among small devices, and can be used to build self-organizing networks of devices.

For Deacon, the answer has to lie in a closer look at self-organizing processes and how the origins of life and consciousness are rooted in the constraints that bind and shape these processes as they build from the simplest self-assembly of molecules up to the emergence of the first life forms.
Efforts to put in place a new role for managers as enablers of self-organizing teams, new Agile methods of coordinating work, new values of trust and transparency and continuous improvement, and horizontal communications will inevitably fall foul of the prevailing mental model of how the C-suite expects the firm to work.
The secret to packing that much information on such small real estate--about 15 times denser than the densest data storage device currently in existence--is self-assembly, or tricking the disk's materials into organizing into an array of data-storing dots packed far tighter than what could be accomplished with current techniques.
