Many companies in the last decade or so have begun to accommodate work schedules to the needs and styles of individual workers.  Workers can be more productive when they can work the hours that are best for them and their families.  Offices and plants are less crowded when not everyone is there at the same time.  The prevalence of microcomputers in homes makes it possible for a lot of work to be done outside of the office.

A school in Interior Alaska devoted the first two weeks in the Fall to moose hunting.  That's what everyone in the village was doing anyway, so they just wrote it into the curriculum and built physical education and science requirements around it.  In New Zealand children start school right on their 5th birthday so that each child can be introduced to the school environment individually.

 

This will allow each member of the organization to tune in separately (and therefore more sensitively) to the situational ecology (1).  Individuals can 'kill tow birds with one stone' by practicing convergent agendas (5) in their daily lives.  To do so also requires that you distribute tasks (8), of cocurse.  It also means you will come to value asynchrony over synchrony (21).  This distribution makes it easier to implement small differences (23) since less synchronization is necessary.  More individual flexibility also makes it easier for you to exercise (47), watch your diet (48), cultivate your own humanity (49), in such 'non work' activities as music and the arts and to enjoy the humanity of others (50) such as your family.
