Longform Thoughts: Why Organizations Undermine Creativity & Potential
For the re-launch of the Boundless podcast, I'm releasing a previously Patreon-only audio discussion of a piece I wrote - Crisis at Work - which was published in the fall of 2017.
*You can read the piece here*: Crisis At Work
I talk through six key reasons why organizational fail to unlock human potential:
- We're defaulting to the wrong goals (shareholder value)
- We're mistaking authority for performance (the Tom Brady principle)
- We aren't providing a connection to purpose
- We don't understand how organizations operate (Chaos theory)
- We aren't giving people autonomy
- We're choosing comfort over growth
