    • Management

This week I am joined by Brian Robertson, the author of Holacracy: The Revolutionary Management system that abolishes hierarchy. Tune in to hear an insightful conversation about the problems and complexities of modern day management.



In this episode we cover:


The discovery of Holacracy


Corporate antibodies & Holacracy


How does Holacracy work and what is it made up of?


Defining roles & limits


What would you have in a Holacracy constitution


What does Holacracy look like from a structural point of view?


The magic of Holacracy


Meeting efficiency in Holacracy


Meeting the CEO of Zappos - running a company like a city


Tips to avoid your Holacracy adoption falling into traps


Main industries in which Holacracy has been prevalent



About Brian Robertson:

Brian Robertson is a seasoned entrepreneur and organization builder, and a recovering CEO - a job he now helps free others from with Holacracy. Generally regarded as the primary developer of the system, Brian’s work allows leaders to release the reins of personal power and persuasion into a trustworthy and explicit governance process.



Brian also serves as the drafter and steward of the Holacracy Constitution, which captures the system's unique "rules of the game" in concrete form. Beyond joyfully crafting legal documents, Brian's creative expression takes many forms – he co-founded HolacracyOne to support Holacracy’s growth, and he fills and loves a broad variety of the company’s roles.



He's particularly grateful to hold no fancy titles and wield no special powers, so he can show up as just another partner doing his part to support something he cares about.
