A New Method for Fixing Dysfunctional Programs, Policies and Operations
May 2nd, 2006 by Elliott Maynard
A New Management Paradigm effectively transforms dysfunctional programs, policies and operations from a state of “incoherence” into one of “coherence.” According to Ed Winchester, Certified Manager (C.M.), Charter Member of FEMA, and Founder of the Pentagon Meditation Club, “Thought is an extremely powerful Natural Resource that has never been fully utilized or understood. Thought is Energy that can be directed consciously, and can draw to it that which is desired. People who know the power of their thoughts, and how to combine thoughts with actions, can produce a powerful force to counteract the worst futures that can be forseen. They can turn seemingly impossible goals into reality peacefully. The Coherence Model offers something new, exciting and challenging to anyone who sincerely wants a fresh approach for solving problems in any situation.In the field of management, incoherent thought processes lead to abnormal, dysfunctional behavior, including breakdowns in disaster response and recovery operations, from Hurricane Katrina to Iraq, to illegal immigration, and genocide in Sudan. Incoherent programs, policies, organizations, and business practices give rise to systems breakdown, faulty pre-disaster planning and mitigation, and frequently lead to fraud, waste, mismanagement, and crimes and abuses ranging from threats to personal safety and well-being and even to open warfare. The existence of crisis situations and other performance problems, whether due to natural disasters, economic conditions, national and international situations, or chaotic conditions, or whatever, is symtomatic of deterioration in the overall state of coherence.”
Winchester goes on to state that the transformation from Incoherence to a Coherent State involves the use of non-traditional methods and the use of Non-Conventional Forms of Energy to quiet the mind and to “experience Silence” in the stillness within. Shifting into and operating within this quiescent mental state apparently serves to stimulate our natural built-in “self-regulating and self-healing processes,” effectively allowing an individual to operate within more of a “Quantum State.” As expressed by Winchester, “A fundamental property of interacting quantum systems is that information transfer is independent of Time (instantaneous) and Distance (nonlocal). Non-Classical Energy Fields mediate reaonant information transfer between quantum domains whether they exist within a body, or between bodies (individuals). Assessing the need for greater coherence thus becomes a question of Scale and Scope. In the final analysis, transfomation from incoherence to coherence involving issues of general concern, and ranging from personal health to national health, and from personal security to national security becomes everyone’s business and responsibility.” Ed Winchester can be contacted at Edward_Winchester@hotmail.com
