Holacracy: The New Management System that Redefines Management
Holacracy The New Management System that Redefines Management Author:Brian J. Robertson Holacracy is the most exciting and revolutionary new management philosophy since Six Sigma. But unlike Six Sigma and other authoritarian solutions, Holacracy turns everyone into a leaderHolacracy is a new method for governing companies. It distributes authority and decision-making throughout an organization, and defines people not by hierarchy a... more »nd titles, but by roles.Traditional companies run by "predict and control." That is, management comes up with a strategy based on historical data, theories, and guesswork. The emphasis is on heroic and visionary leaders and loyal workers. And when information from the field contradicts the strategy, the people reporting that information are usually told to get with the program or find another place to work.Not with Holacracy. When you distribute authority, all reports from the front lines are brought to the people who need to hear them, and there?s a process for working out tensions that allows organizations to evolve in real time, responding to changing markets and changing conditions. There?s plenty of management ? but no managers. Everyone has multiple roles and owns those roles. Holacracy creates organizations that are fast, agile, and succeed by pursuing their purpose, not following a dated and artificial plan.This isn?t anarchy ? it?s quite the opposite. When you start to follow Holacracy, you learn to create new structures and ways of making decisions that empower the people who know the most about the work you do: your frontline colleagues.« less
