Team syntegrity: A new methodology for group work

Allenna Leonard

European Management Journal, 1996, vol. 14, issue 4, 407-413

Abstract: Team Syntegrity is a new process, developed by management cybernetician Stafford Beer, for enabling groups to work together in a democratic, non-hierarchical fashion to capture their best thinking. It is a particularly appropriate process to use when groups are characterized by high levels of diversity - either because they come from different countries, such as the members of the European Community or NAFTA, or because they come from different political, cultural or disciplinary perspectives. This article describes how syntegrations look in action, the considerations which apply to their planning and delivery, and some avenues for future development and experimentation.
