REINVENTING ORGANIZATIONS
reinventare le organizzazioni
#teal #selfmanagement
The way we manage organizations seems increasingly out of date. Survey after survey shows that a majority of employees feel disengaged from their companies. Most of the organisations suffer from power games played at the top and powerlessness at lower levels, from infighting and bureaucracy, from endless meetings and a seemingly never-ending succession of change and cost-cutting programs.
Deep inside, we long for soulful workplaces, for authenticity, community, passion, and purpose. The solution, according to many progressive scholars, lies with more enlightened management. But reality shows that this is not enough. In most cases, the system beats the individual-when managers or leaders go through an inner transformation, they end up leaving their organizations because they no longer feel like putting up with a place that is inhospitable to the deeper longings of their soul.
We need more enlightened leaders, but we need something more: enlightened organizational structures and practices. But is there even such a thing? Can we conceive of enlightened organizations?
The pioneering organizations researched for this book have already “cracked the code.” Their founders have fundamentally questioned every aspect of management and have come up with entirely new organizational methods.
Self-management: How it Does Work
Self-management. Come funziona veramente
#teal #selfmanagement
In a self-managing organization, the team members are collectively responsible for the team result. Team decisions are made by consensus, with each team member also taking individual responsibility for the agreements made. This makes a world of difference to the everyday functioning of the organization. More and more directors are becoming aware of the advantages of self-organisation, but the thought of making changes to the organizational structure seems so daunting that they don’t know where to start. This practical guide explains how to make the transition from hierarchy to self-management. We discuss the implications for team members, team coaches, managers, and supporting staff, as well as the skills they need in order to carry out their work effectively as part of self-organisation. We also give concrete tools to aid in effective communication, such as the Solution Driven Method of Interaction, solution-oriented meetings, and approaches for handling conflict.
The Essentials of Theory U: Core Principles and Applications
Teoria U: I fondamentali
#Utheory #changemanagement #complexity
This book offers a concise, accessible guide to the key concepts and applications in Otto Scharmer’s classic Theory U. Scharmer argues that our capacity to pay attention co-shapes the world. What prevents us from attending to situations more effectively is that we aren’t fully aware of that interior condition from which our attention and actions originate. Scharmer calls this lack of awareness our blind spot. He illuminates the blind spot in leadership today and offers hands-on methods to help change makers overcome it through the process, principles, and practices of Theory U. And he outlines a framework for updating the “operating systems” of our educational institutions, our economies, and our democracies. This book enables leaders and organizations in all industries and sectors to shift awareness, connect with the highest future possibilities, and strengthen the capacity to co-shape the future.
Agile People: A Radical Approach for HR & Managers (That Leads to Motivated Employees)
Agile People. Un approccio radicale per HR & manager (che crea dipendenti motivati)
#agile #HR #collaborations
Corporate cultures, global mindsets, and employee priorities are changing, which means management and human resources departments must also evolve. To ensure teams are well crafted, motivated, and successful, managers and HR professionals must step outside their comfort zone and adapt to younger, newer ways of thinking—they must become Agile.
In Agile People, management consultant Pia-Maria Thoren outlines how managers, human resources professionals, company decision-makers, and employees can adopt the flexible, fluid, customer-focused mindset of modern tech companies to inspire their workers and strengthen their organizations. This essential handbook explains both the theories and practical applications behind the Agile framework, showing how companies can do the following:
•Create a structure and culture for an organization to meet future challenges
•Give management and HR the changed mindset and the tools to facilitate employee drive and performance
•Empower employees to become motivated stakeholders
•Adopt hiring practices that value attitude, behavior, and competence
•Create a passionate, loyal, and accomplished workforce
No matter the size of a company, it can benefit from an Agile mindset and launch into a future filled with successful leadership and motivated employees.
Inside the change: Key Concepts an Exercises of the New Methodology of the Evidential
L’arte di cambiare. Pratiche di leadership orizzontale per la business transformation
#horizontalleadership
All leaders of organizations I meet live with the question: “How can I motivate my people that they deal themselves, out of their own sense of responsibility, with the work challenges they meet, the goals they strive towards, the changes they experience, and that they take the right initiatives?”
Co-workers, I meet in organizations live with the question: “How can I make sure that they will listen to us so that finally we can share the real problems we are facing in the work: what are they all doing up there creating changes all the time?”
In this book, we explore a new methodology for handling the gap between bosses and workers, in particular a methodology that supports the way we deal together with complex changes of organizations, with ‘slow questions’ that have no easy answers. This methodology meets the inner inspiration that shows itself in the outer movement. It is connected to recent developments in social sciences that are characterized in this book. It is also connected to the practices of leaders in organizations that search for and find new ways for dealing with resistant change issues and processes and with ‘slow questions in swampy circumstances’.
Just Money: Mission-Driven Banks and the Future of Finance
Just money. La finanza da egosistema a ecosistema
#justbanking #ecosystem
Money defines our present and will shape our future. Every investment decision we make adds a chapter to the story of what our world will look like. Although the idea of mission-based finance has been around for decades, there is a gap between organizations’ stated intention to “do good” and meaningful impact. Still, some are succeeding. In Just Money, Katrin Kaufer and Lillian Steponaitis take readers on a global tour of financial institutions that use finance as a force for good.

🤩 Nuovo appuntamento con Facilitators’ Playground: un gruppo di persone che si occupano di #facilitazione, #formazione, #design e sviluppo di #startup!
L'obiettivo con cui è nato questo gruppo di cui siamo parte e che ha una compagine variegata, proveniente da realtà diverse, è di essere crocevia di contesti, idee, lenti di osservazione ed esperienze.
Una mattina ogni due mesi ci incontriamo per #sperimentare in modo giocoso strumenti utili per la facilitazione di #processi sociali, nei contesti in cui ogni professionista lavora.
È anche così che noi di #Peoplerise approfondiamo l'applicazione di nuove #pratiche per offrire servizi sempre più innovativi, attraverso un processo di contaminazione diffusa.
In quest'ultimo incontro abbiamo sperimentato la costruzione di una città, con l’obiettivo di far coesistere lo scopo collettivo con i bisogni di ognuno di noi, esattamente come succede nei contesti aziendali. Ogni persona, infatti, ha necessità legate al proprio #ruolo e alla propria #biografia ed è importante trovare il modo per permetterne la coesistenza, al fine di mantenere sia un buon livello di benessere ed engagement delle persone, che al contempo raggiungere un obiettivo condiviso.
Non vediamo l'ora che arrivi la prossima occasione per metterci in gioco, stimolati da nuove sfide!
Con Elena Crudo | Ilaria Giacometti | Ilaria Buccioni | Giulio Bonanome | MATTIA FESTA | valentina sandi | Giovanni Rigon

🤔 Come possiamo collegare in modo più significativo il proposito di un’azienda e la realtà quotidiana?
Oggi siamo a Stoccolma per partecipare alla due giorni di #Intersection22 | Creating Purposeful Enterprises.
Come #Peoplerise abbiamo scelto di essere parte dell’ottava edizione di Intersection Conference, con focus l'Enterprise Design, perché ha l’obiettivo di riunire una comunità di #designers di esperienze e organizzazioni con l'ambizione condivisa di supportare e progettare imprese migliori.
Organizzazioni che siano guidate da uno #proposito chiaro: implementare i giusti cambiamenti per un lavoro significativo e umano, relazioni preziose con i clienti e gli altri attori, prodotti e servizi utili e valore aggiunto per la società e il pianeta.
Tra gli speaker anche la nostra Elena Crudo che ha facilitato un #workshop per condividere con i partecipanti come attraverso un approccio biografico le organizzazioni possano coinvolgere le persone, crescere e aumentare il loro impatto.
👉 È possibile che la nostra attuale visione del mondo limiti il modo in cui pensiamo agli individui e alle organizzazioni?
👉 E se le organizzazioni fossero considerate luoghi in cui, piuttosto che gli organigrammi, le interconnessioni di relazioni e competenze fossero al centro di una nuova prospettiva?
Se consideriamo le imprese come organismi viventi, piuttosto che come meccanismi fatti di ingranaggi, esse hanno una #biografia esattamente come tutte le persone che vi lavorano. Possiamo così incrociare le biografie individuali, le nostre vite, con quella dell’organizzazione e costruire una #mappatura vivente e affrontare più coesi le sfide che ci vengono incontro.
Grazie agli amici di @Intersection Group per l’invito e a tutti i nuovi amici e colleghi incontrati per le esperienze condivise!

🤩 Come "ri-conoscersi" per attivare un nuovo percorso insieme in un progetto d'integrazione organizzativa?
Una grande azione artistica #collettiva presso l'Accademia di Belle Arti di Venezia è stata la scelta delle persone di Vulcano Agency e Pallino.
Un evento co-disegnato sin dall’inizio dai #team delle due aziende, dove il supporto di #Peoplerise è stato di creare uno spazio sicuro che consentisse un’esperienza autentica per tutti i partecipanti e di accompagnare un momento conclusivo, in cui ogni persona si è immersa nella musica, nel proprio silenzio, nella scrittura.
Sole, vento, colori, pennelli, artisti, vociare, musica ed energia.
Ma anche quiete, riconnessione, armonia, riflessioni, carta e penna.
Tutto ciò ha generato un'esperienza magica e creato ricordi condivisi indelebili, che ora vivono nell’anima di chi ha partecipato.
Con Valentino Girardi | Antonio Di Stefano | Elena Crudo
