In my new book, Transforming Museum Management, I propose a theory of change based on open systems theory and Buddhist concept of mutual causality to transform museums to be more inclusive and relevant to their local communities. Open systems theory, originally developed by Ludwig von Bertanlanffy, presents the concept that organizations, such as museums, are heavily influenced by their environment emphasizing dynamic interdependence among different parts of the museum as well as with their external environment. The interdependent nature of organizations emphasized in open systems theory explains the following: transformational changes happen when internal actors listen to diverse external voices and make changes both mentally and structurally through democratic and inclusive processes.
