Once you have come to terms with the idea of the individual as a node of a collective, then the idea of a business as a community starts to make sense. And why you ask should one view a business as a community? Well, it's a very easy way to get over the old fashioned hierarchical model, and start to make space for each individual to contribute without having to be constantly herded (pun deliberate) because we are hard wired to operate in a herd, so all know where we fit in and how to contribute, and we do - all the way to the very best of our ability.
