Theory U is a change management method and the title of a book by Otto Scharmer. Scharmer with colleagues at MIT conducted 150 interviews with entrepreneurs and innovators in science, businsess, and society and then extended the basic principles into a theory of learning and management, which he calls Theory U

  • On page 8 of Sharmer's latest book, "The Essentials of Theory U," Sharmer writes:
"... if we were asked where our actions come from, most of us would be unable to provide a clear response. In my research I began to call this origin of our actions and perceptions the source." (emphasis by the author)



  • Reading these words made me instantly see a link between Sharmer's mysterious "source" which he proceeds to call the "Blind Spot" throughout all the rest of Theory U and Sinek's "Why."

Is the Blind Spot identical to Sinek's Why??
