You speak about Quakers as if they are a thing of the past, lost in history books and no longer active. We are here, there, and elsewhere and continue the work of our ancestors. Thank you for your work on Sociocracy. If you ever re-record this please speak about Quakers in the present tense. Thank you.

In this month’s podcast we speak to management guru Gary Hamel on how to build leadership capability for change, so that organisations can thrive. He suggests how this can be achieved and talks about the setting up of MLab, sponsored by CIPD.

A brief introduction to classic Sociocracy

Listen to an excerpt of Brian J. Robertson's Holacracy audiobook, read by the author. 

Holacracy is a revolutionary management system that redefines management and turns everyone into a leader.

Holacracy distributes authority and decision-making throughout an organization, and defines people not by hierarchy and titles, but by roles. Holacracy creates organizations that are fast, agile, and that 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.

Some of the many champions of Holacracy include Tony Hsieh, CEO of Zappos.com (author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Delivering Happiness), Evan Williams (co-founder of Blogger, Twitter, and Medium), and David Allen.
