Description

Teal, Trust, Transparency can be seen as a continuation of Frederic Laloux's book Reinventing Organizations and as a practical guide on how to organize and lead based on Teal and modern ways of organizing. For three years, Alicia and Rolf Medina have conducted a research project on modern forms of organizing and leading, in which they have interviewed more than three hundred people, studied a hundred companies, and talked to several of the world's leading experts and researchers in the field. During this work, they have found individuals in all parts of the world who, independently of each other, work to create better workplaces and see organizing from a systemic perspective.

Alicia and Rolf have been looking for concrete realities to then compile into something new, something that can suit our evolving world. The result is a model that they call the DP model (Distributed Power) that consists of twelve different areas that need to be considered in every organization that wants to be part of the future.

The idea behind the research and the book is based on the fact that we are in a paradigm shift regarding how to organize ourselves and how we work. The new paradigm means that organizations are human-centered and are a place where the leader is not a holder of power.

What is very clear is that the old command and control paradigm that has governed the last hundred years no longer works. It creates alienation, disengagement, stress, conflicts, unproductivity, and willingness to change jobs, and it is not sustainable. It is also clear that many organizations want to change this way of organizing and working but do not know how to start.

The book Teal Trust Transparency - A guide for self-organizing and new ways to organize and lead - emphasizes the importance of having a systemic approach. It means a new way of organizing that is not based on hierarchies of power.

Workplaces need to be healthier for those who work there. A way of achieving this is by treating each other as adults. In many organizations today, a few decide for the many. This book aims to contribute to creating organizational forms that are based on trust, openness, and equality. There is need for a guide on how organizations can move to the new human-centered and systemic paradigm, the DP model, which is based on research and is at the same time written in a way that is concrete, filled with examples, and addresses a wide audience.

The book invites reflection, consideration, and actions that lead to new ways to organize and lead and start the journey towards self-organizing. The book is also a contribution to the global movement that leads to organizations becoming more human and to all of us recognizing that people must come before financial gains and exploitation of the planet.

Teal, Trust, Transparency is a book for everyone who is part of an organization - from managers and employees to politicians and students - and who wants to start or continue the journey towards a new way of organizing work.
