In Holacracy, we have the freedom to make a difference, to change the way a role works and express you need. You have complete authority on your role to do whatever it takes to get the job done well and no one can tell you otherwise nor has the right to do it in your place because it is your space, your role, you know it best therefore it is now your sole responsibility to energize and improve it. -

There is plenty to read, see and hear on the liberated company concept. But is it the company or rather the employees who need liberating? There is a lot of talk about changing the “traditional” managerial model, but do companies that have undergone a form of liberation have a real model to offer, or just the personal stories of pioneering entrepreneurs who took the risk of turning part of their power over to their employees? -

The history of Philippe Pinault, CEO and founder of talkSpirit: I have been an entrepreneur for fifteen years, and like every entrepreneur I am anxious to develop a framework within which we can all give our best individually as well as achieve the best possible performance as a group. Like every leader I must have spent hundreds of hours thinking about our organization and how to optimize it, how to break down the work into different functions and then turn these into job descriptions, procedures, rules,… more or less successfully so. -

People very often think that the main difficulty with the shift of system of authority involved in Holacracy stems from managers (those who used to make all the decisions and tell the others what to do), because they find it hard to relinquish their power. -

The hardest thing I can see about switching to Holacracy is unlearning everything we have learned about normal operations in an organization and switching to a different approach that gives rise to many legitimate questions. -
