Please follow me on Substack, as that's where I am moving my most active web posting! substack.com/@NielsPflaeging And I also curate a serious Red42 Substack there: nielspflaeging.substack.com I am also on LinkedIn, Bluesky, Mastodon, Instagram, etc. etc.
A period of time, a country, a man. Read the brand new "Deming in Japan, 1950-1965" research paper. betacodex.org/white-papers/p…
Later today: A conversation with the wonderful Peter Block about his latest book “Activating the common good: Reclaiming control of our collective well-being”. A book that could not be more timely! youtube.com/watch?v=f_6gKk…
A new post is live on the BetaCodex Network substack! betacodexnetwork.substack.com/p/transformati… Check it out and subscribe to stay updated by Email. All free of charge, of course.
People who talk of leaders are obsessed with authoritarian thinking. They cannot get rid of paternalistic (“power-over”) patterns of imagining the world. They have nothing constructive to contribute to organizations or societies.
A new BetaCodex Network research paper is here: "Deming in Japan, 1950-1965" Read the BetaCodex Network news announcement: betacodex.org/home/news/our-… Access the paper here: betacodex.org/white-papers/p…
In the 23rd @BetaCodex_INTL research paper (published yesterday), I invite you to take a closer look at the 1950s and 1960s, when W. Edwards Deming taught the Japanese about production & management for quality: nielspflaeging.substack.com/p/once-upon-a-…
We published a new research paper today!
This week's new article, on #Deming, #Drucker and the crucial difference between the two: nielspflaeging.substack.com/p/the-one-big-…

Practical theory makes people think. Great cases only make people nod (at best). Which is why "safaris" to the Silicon Valley or other "inspiring" places are dysfunctional. Sorry.
Big news coming on Monday: @BetaCodex_INTL research paper No. 23 is arriving!
On 23 April, join Rijon Erickson and me for a new session of BetaCodex LIVE, with the great Peter Block! The three will talk about Peter’s newest book “Activating the Common Good”! Sign up! youtube.com/watch?v=f_6gKk…
I just published a BRAND NEW article about the many similarities and the "one big difference" between two two great thinkers of management in the 20th century: W. Edwards Deming and Peter Drucker. I hope you will find this interesting! nielspflaeging.substack.com/p/the-one-big-…
A new post on the Red42 Substack is here: It's about 46 differences that make a difference. Check them out and subscribe to the Substack to stay updated! It's free of charge. nielspflaeging.substack.com/p/differences-…
Like it or not: Your company has EXACTLY the culture it deserves. Question is: How can you "change the culture" if you "cannot really change the culture?" 1st thing to know: Don't believe a word of what "culture gurus" like Ed Schein said about the matter! substack.com/home/post/p-16…
Self-organization and self-management: They are NOT the same! Which is why we at Red42 focus on supporting consistent self-organization in companies. And not that other thing. Check out our website at redforty2.com
I created this new post on Substack about the "McGregor Paradox". Enjoy and sign up to my updates! substack.com/home/post/p-16…
A new post on Substack on the role of Douglas McGregor in management and BetaCodex history: substack.com/home/post/p-16…
