MY BOOK OF THE CENTURY: The Starfish and the Spider: The Unstoppable Power of Leaderless Organizations! A revolution is raging all around us....Decentralization has been lying dormant for thousands of years. But the advent of the Internet has unleashed this force...The rules of the game have changed. The Spanish army defeated the Aztecs in a few years but couldn’t defeat the Apaches in 200 years. The Apaches persevered because they were decentralized. Two opposite systems – centralized (command and control, rules) and decentralized (no clear leader, no hierarchy, no headquarters; open system, distributed power; flexibility, shared power, ambiguity). Geronimo never commanded an army. Rather, he himself started fighting, and everyone around him joined in. - Roland Allen
