How It Works
Distributed Authority Holacracy is a distributed authority system – a set of “rules of the game” that bake empowerment into the core of the organization. Unlike conventional top-down or progressive bottom-up approaches, it integrates the benefits of both without relying on parental heroic leaders. Everyone becomes a leader of their roles and a follower of others’, processing tensions with real authority and real responsibility, through dynamic governance and transparent operations.

Holacracy installs clear processes for “governance” and “operations” – in every team, at every level of scale. Related reading: Blog post: Processing Tensions Related:  MidMarket Place

kimono : Turn websites into structured APIs from your browser in seconds Sociocratie La sociocratie est un mode de gouvernance partagée qui permet à une organisation, quelle que soit sa taille, de fonctionner efficacement selon un mode auto-organisé caractérisé par des prises de décision distribuées sur l'ensemble de la structure. Son fondement moderne est issu des théories systémiques et date de 1970[1]. La sociocratie s'appuie sur la liberté et la co-responsabilisation des acteurs. Dans une logique d'auto-organisation faisant confiance à l'humain, elle va mettre le pouvoir de l'intelligence collective au service du succès d'objectifs communs. La sociocratie utilise certaines techniques mises au point par son concepteur qui fondent son originalité, notamment l'élection sans candidat, et la prise de décision par consentement[2].

weworkunbound.com Holacratie Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre. L'holacratie est un système organisationnel de gouvernance qui permet à une organisation de disséminer les mécanismes de prise de décision au travers d'une organisation fractale d'équipes auto-organisées. Elle se distingue donc nettement des modèles pyramidaux top-down[1]. L'holacratie a été adoptée par plusieurs organisations (aux États-Unis, en France, en Grande-Bretagne, en Allemagne, en Nouvelle-Zélande). Elle est fréquemment comparée à la sociocratie[2], bien que des différences significatives existent entre les deux approches. Origine[modifier | modifier le code] Le terme holacratie est dérivé de celui d'holarchie inventé en 1967 par Arthur Koestler dans son livre The Ghost in the Machine. Le système holacratique fut développé en 2001 par Brian Robertson au sein de son entreprise de production de logiciels (Ternary Software) en vue de mettre au point des mécanismes de gouvernance plus agiles.

Needle-Moving Collective Impact Guide: Community Collaborative Life Stages Introduction Collaboration has long been a part of the social sector. But many have also experienced collaboratives that do not live up to their potential in one way or another—nothing happens between meetings, the group never reaches real agreement, the group loses steam as participants transition in and out, or the collaborative falls apart as participants jockey to claim whatever successes emerge. There is an exciting groundswell right now in a new kind of collaborative that may hold the key to addressing some of these problems. The overarching difference we have experienced in these collaboratives is seriousness about having real, concrete impact on a community-wide goal. Unsatisfied with small gains for a smaller segment of the population, the leaders of these new collaboratives have put forth ambitious goals and backed them up with long-term investments of resources and effort. Do we aim to effect "needle-moving" change (i.e., 10 percent or more) on a community-wide metric?

Value Mapping – Development Impact and You What makes you do what you do? The Value Mapping tool helps you answer this by enabling you to describe the values which are embodied in your personal work and in the wider organisation. These values are probably more influential than anything else in shaping what you do. They might be something that you take for granted, that you think is obvious, or that you’ve never actually articulated or written down. Defining these values however can be very useful when trying to explain your work to other colleagues and partners.

Rebooting IT: Why financial institutions need a new technology model - Bain Brief However, in most financial institutions, significant gaps exist between the business’s aspirations and what they can realistically accomplish. Executives demand greater speed and agility, but their IT departments are unable to deliver, resulting in frustrations and mutual distrust. The C-suite demands for faster, cheaper, better grow louder as the IT function has become slow, expensive and, in some extreme instances, paralyzed. Many factors contribute to this immobilization, including rapidly increasing volumes of business and regulatory demands, a growing need to support complex business processes and products, inflexible legacy systems architectures, onerous internal processes and talent limitations. We believe this problem is larger than IT; it is a strategic business challenge as well as a great opportunity. A new digital IT operating model What does this transformation aim to achieve? So how can IT functions respond to this challenge? Priorities and alignment. Organization.
