Teeming: How Superorganisms Work Together to Build Infinite Wealth on a Finite Planet

by Tamsin Woolley-Barker

The most successful species are those that adapt to change, and the same is true in business. Today's global organizations need a new way of sensing and responding to unpredictable conditions. In Teeming, evolutionary biologist and biomimicry expert Dr. Tamsin Woolley-Barker lays out how superogranisms, earth's most ancient and successful societies, can show us the way to infinite wealth in a finite world.

[Aaron · Rating 3 out of 5]

While the author makes some interesting comparisons between the animal kingdom and human communities, organizations, etc I found the analogies a bit spiraling. I think there are interesting habits of superorganisms in nature that are similar to sapians but did not find a compelling argument that we would be better off mimicing any particular trait. A sidenote is that the version I read was rife with typos which I’m not normally one to comment on.

Compelling concept but lacked any true hypothesis or conclusions

Great ideas and easy to implement

Teeming makes collaboration a reality in our world and gives us clear ideas on what to do and what not to do to enhance our organizations performance.

I found the ideas in this book to be fairly simple to implement in life. Some of the comparisons were a bit far-fetched, but I was able to understand where the author was coming from.

Great but a little naive

A great exploration of the World of biomimicry. In a way the Book i wanted to Write, but it is complete naive hoe humans operate in the gig economy
