Abstract: Abstract The dramatic subtitle of the classic 1963 book Organizational Choice by Eric Trist and colleagues, which tells the story of the spontaneous bottom-up decentralization into leaderless autonomous groups that occurred in the 1950s in some British coal mines, the subject of our second case study in Chapter 4, is The Loss, Re-Discovery & Transformation of a Work Tradition. This same subtitle would be quite appropriate to a more contemporary story, this time in the home health care business in The Netherlands.
