How can existing organisations adopt some of the lessons and achieve similar outcomes? And are these lessons particularly relevant now that most of us find ourselves working from home and traditional management practices have been disrupted?
Webinar programme:
Part 1: Interactive presentation using quick polls and open discussion if numbers allow:
- Introduction to models of self-management: who does it and why
- How does it work?
- What are the benefits (and risks)?
- How to adopt the lessons from successful self-managed organisations
Part 2: Discussion
Part 3: How to make a start
Who is it aimed at?
This webinar is aimed at anyone who is asking themselves whether the traditional hierarchical structures and processes are the only organisational option out there. More specially, if you are a leader (CEO, senior manager) this may be the session for you, especially for small, fast-growing organisations who need to make big decisions about how to stay nimble or whether to become a bureaucratic beast.
If you are in charge or organisational change (HR, strategy) or wonder how to transform your operations, this session will also give you radical new input.
About Paul Jansen
Until recently Paul was COO of Buurtzorg Britain & Ireland, a consultancy representing the Dutch Buurtzorg (meaning ‘neighbourhood care’) organisation in the UK. Paul has supported various organisations in their ambition to adapt and adopt the principles of self-management, with the aim to provide better care for patients in the community, better jobs for care professionals and reduce cost. The lessons from organisations like Buurtzorg, Patagonia, Gore, Netflix and others are applicable not only to organisations in their own sectors. If anything, self-managed organisations exist in all sectors and all corners of the world and their principles could be of benefit to any organisation. Paul writes regular blogs on the theme of self-management, which can be found here. A recent blog for thinktank Corporate Rebels can be found here.
Paul is based in Cambridge and is - of course - a Cambridge Network member.
