Book excerpt: How to design your organization for success . . Science tells us that energy travels where it is easiest to go. Drawing on this concept, Robert Fritz adds a missing piece to management literature: the structural causes of success and failure, and explains how to redesign the organization or team for success. The Path of Least Resistance for Managers teaches readers to take structural laws into account when they restructure their own organizations so the changes they attempt to make do succeed, and they can achieve their highest goals. Fritz examines four crucial elements that contribute to an organization's success: How to move the organization from wasteful oscillating patterns to successful advancement; How a management strategy can best support the business strategy; How to compose the organization so that all the parts support each other; How people can align to the spiritual purpose of the organization. This revolutionary guide prescribes a direct approach that managers can use immediately to develop the paths of least resistance that will lead to success for their organizations.
