By Sally McCutchion and originally published on medium.com The concept of self-management as a business methodology came to the fore in 2014 when Frederick Laloux published his well-known book Reinventing Organisations.

By Lisa Gill and originally published on Corporate Rebels Hiring people in a self-managing organization can be tricky. Bossless organizations may seem like a dream, but once people start working in this way, they realize how challenging it can be. When it doesn’t work out, it can be painful and costly for both the organization and the individual. So, is there a way to provide potential hires with a more accurate picture of what they’re signing up for before accepting a job offer? Here’s an example of one way to do that.

Miki is the seed founder and Emma a founding member of the Nonviolent Global Liberation community (NGL), which runs entirely as a gift economy. They and NGL as a whole are knee-deep in visionary experimentation about what it would take to realign humanity with life through online and community living experiments. Even without bosses we can still struggle to embody new ways of being together because of our internalised systems of patriarchal conditioning and capitalist thinking. The capacity lens gives us a way to examine

These reflections were stimulated by Life at Work Weekly newsletter Thursday, February 22, 2024 Issue #257 from Dr. Claudia Gross available here. When you as a leader in your organization are considering any big organizational change, how do you present the context of this change? What is the bigger picture for where this change is going? Is there a consciously held trajectory that the changes represent or are they just crisis management or pet foci of management leaders? We at Enlivening Edge see the Reinventing Organizations (RO) framework and trajectory as having the most detailed and explicit framework and trajectory,
