One of the functions of an organization, of any organism, is to anticipate the future, so that those relationships can persist over time.

When a system is in turbulence, the turbulence is not just out there in the environment, but is a part of the organization or organism that you are looking at.

In a broad systems sense, an organism's environment is indistinguishable from the organism itself.

It has become evident that the primary lesson of the study of evolution is that all evolution is coevolution: every organism is evolving in tandem with the organisms around it.

An organization's intelligence is distributed to the point of being ubiquitous.

It's generally much easier to kill an organization than to change it substantially.
