You Can Also Change the World TLM is very effective on a personal level. But it is not merely a new self-help technique. Its ultimate implications are far more profound. Imagine a technology that has the power to change entire institutions so they continually operate in the most effective manner possible. Even if you believe that personal renewal is possible, it may be hard to picture such a Utopian view of society. It becomes easier when you understand that organizations and institutions have belief systems too—and their dysfunctional strategies and operations spring from these systems. What people do in organizations is a function of the “culture”—the beliefs about what it takes to survive and succeed. These fundamental beliefs are manifested in innumerable policies, procedures, organizational structures, management styles, and systems. Institutions operate out of a paradigm—a set of core beliefs—about their nature and purpose. All behaviors and actions flow from these basic beliefs, which shape the strategies of the institution. In the same way that many individuals get stuck with dysfunctional and limiting beliefs, institutions and corporations also create boxes that prevent them from healthy operation and growth. They may try hard to solve their problems, but the more they try, within the framework of the box, the more deeply embedded the problems seem to become. As you will see in Part Three, what I call Third Order Change—being in a state of continuous creation—allows any institution and organization to devise workable strategies to deal with problems as they occur.
Re-Create Your Life

Cena není v současné době tím jediným, co v očích zákazníků určuje hodnotu výrobků, služby či čehokoli jiného. Tuto hodnotu utváří rovněž trvalost a udržitelnost vztahů, vědomí toho, že firemní transakce jsou důvěryhodné, že značka si zaslouží důvěru, že organizace či stát si zaslouží důvěru. Organizace musí definovat své poslání a dlouhodobě je ve vztazích se zainteresovanými stranami realizovat. Pokud to dělá odpovědně a uvážlivě, vytváří se důvěra.
Ztráta důvěry, jíž jsme v poslední době svědky, vyžaduje, abychom se zamysleli nad tím, co musíme udělat pro její „znovunastolení" a obnovu, a abychom si uvědomili, že důvěra se stává novou „měnou" současné globální ekonomiky.
Chytrá Důvěra
