In-Corp-Oration (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781069978707)

Discover the art of organizational balance and the hidden architecture of corporate power.

Modern corporations are filled with talent, resources, and intelligence - so why do they so often fracture between vision, management, and execution? Why do well-funded projects spiral into overruns, and talented teams disengage?

In-Corp-Oration offers a radical diagnosis. Using the ancient Japanese art of Ikebana - a discipline of structure, intention, and balance - it reveals how organizations operate as living arrangements of three elements:

Heaven (Leadership): The vision, direction, and aspiration.

Body (Management): The structure that translates intent into action.

Earth (Labor): The foundation where work is done and value is created.

When these elements fall out of balance, the result is exhaustion, waste, and systemic failure - no matter how brilliant the strategy or generous the funding.

Drawing on decades of insider experience from boardrooms to mudfields, this book is not an external critique but a voice from within. It provides a framework for diagnosing imbalance, a language for sensing truth inside systems designed to obscure it, and a practical guide to maintaining integrity even when the structure rewards its opposite.

For leaders, managers, consultants, and anyone navigating the complexity of modern work, In-Corp-Oration is an essential read, a call to rebuild not just organizations, but the very practice of balance that keeps them alive.
