Once again we encounter
the tremendous power of positive feedback. Success is intoxicating and
addictive. Each achievement leads to a desire for more. Once it is in
place in an organization, if you are sensitive enough, you can see it,
taste it, and feel it. My simulations show it in its mathematical form,
but to truly understand it you need to experience it.
I have already
discussed some examples. I discussed a feedback loop in detail in
Strapping a Jet on Your Back. Another example is the agriculture
project I worked on, where people became committed to the concept that
we were helping to feed the world by taking a leap forward in improving
farm management. A third example is Northern California Ballet, where
the process has been going on for nearly three decades.
