You don’t need another buzzword. You need a way of working that survives chaos. In this deep dive you’ll learn what emergent business actually is and how to use it now. We walk through living-systems strategy, self-management, networked governance, safe-to-fail experiments, and why “power with” beats “power over.” You leave with one 2-week test to run inside your team and a simple roles map to reveal where your organization needs nourishment. No fantasies. No perfection. Just practice.
