Abstract

Research Question (RQ): How can we minimize the operational dissipation within businesses?

Purpose: How to minimize dispersed activities (‘collisions’ ≈ ‘energy loss’) in an organization.

Method: Research is based on a qualitative approach. In a direct analogy with electron correlations physics, applied to a business type of organization.

Results: By introducing the concept of operational coherence, the performance should improve. There is not just the concept of organization, the most important is correlation, cooperation as a harmony in autopoietic systems. Autopoiesis of an organization is inter-connected from small to large scales and can provide a harmony of life within a successful organization.  

Organization: The management enhances coordination, then the organization runs optimally. If we could achieve a quantum level in an organization, we may be successful at a higher level. But this level is a human in human-organic organization.

Society: It enhances communications, increases social responsibility and improves the environment. With focus on natural evolution and improving the human in inner and outside process, we could improve the environment and as a result achieve a ‘green’ society.

Originality: This is a new approach to test the correlation concepts within a business organization.

Limitations / further research: We need to perform experiments with real teams in a company. For further research we need the study of research patterns in a self-organization environment.
