  • This chapter presents the authors' belief that hierarchical thinking and notion of power need to change before organizations can take advantage of the specific competence of designers, They introduce Mary Parker Follett's theoretical power discourse, developed in the 1920s to demonstrate an alternative view of power to classical management thinking, and relate Follett's notion of power with the characteristics of designers competence. One reason for the practical difficulties of integrating design as a strategic resources many be problems associated with doing creative work within a hierarchical organization; these obstacles can be overcome if managers and designers value a "circular response" and follow "the law of the situation."
