This essay presents social transformation processes as the starting point of tensions between shared mental values in organizations. The concept suggests the need to create collective processes to search, select, and reshape these values to ensure an organization and its actors remain capable of acting. The need for those in leadership positions to develop a participatory perspective is examined on the basis of contemporary developments as seen, for example, in the form of a networked knowledge society.
