However, in practice there is some considerable overlap in managers’ experience of dilemma and paradox because both constructs are conceptual and interpretative rather than objective and categorical. We see the interplay between dilemma and paradox as a fluid and dynamic one. These may not be absolute categories but rather ways of seeing. The initial experience of discomfort and tension may be very similar. It is the mode of resolution which differs. The exploitation of paradox The power of paradoxical thinking – and we see it as a capability which can be learned, fostered and developed – is that it promotes and utilizes creative thinking which transcends old familiar ways of thinking.
And this is the main focus of the book. We argue that leaders and managers may adopt a range of approaches to organizational paradox. ) the manager ‘solves’ these problems by further tightening and increasing control). Using a second approach, managers faced with paradox may seek to ‘solve’ it by avoiding it. For example, one attempt to resolve the problems inherent in the management of people and resources might be sought through outsourcing. In this way other organizations handle the problems and paradoxes of management.
Management response is characterized by tendencies which encourage polarized, black/white; good/bad thinking. We argue that this tendency is not accidental or incidental but an outcome of a central management dilemma: how to generate managers’ commitment to a recommended option (by stressing – indeed over-stressing – the benefits at the cost of the rejected option). However, the appeal of this mode of thinking may have other foundations. It may be a product of a distinctively Western form of rationality applied to organizational issues, of the need for consistency, clarity and neatness.
