Problem: Some theories and practices of leading and managing are timeless and universal, that is, they are transhistorical and supracultural. At the same time, our theories of leading and managing are evolving as we learn. We can enrich and refine our theories with new insights. Even more so, our practices of leading and managing are effective to the degree that they are appropriate and apt to the people and circumstances involved. These necessarily change through time, cultures, and the nature of the dominant economic order in which we are operating. Today, we are going through a historic shift from the Industrial Age to the Knowledge Age, and this change must influence how we lead and manage successfully.
