One tends to be very big and focused--strong in specific areas. Others tend to be larger, more diffuse, and covering more ground. Both have their advantages and weaknesses. Strong agencies can sustain a lot of work and a large number of people over a long period of time, but can become very rigid and difficult to change (think skeletons, or the beams of a house), and often are limited in the number of places they can be. Diffuse agencies (swarms) can sustain many more people over much broader areas, but individual nodes can be very weak (think skin, or drywall). Figuring out which approach you're going to use, and then going with your strengths, is very important. The two different categories of organizations require very different kinds of skill sets.Justin Longhttp://www.justinlong.orgnoreply@blogger.com
