"THE GREATEST DANGER IN TIMES OF TURBULENCE IS NOT THE TURBULENCE. IT IS TO ACT WITH YESTERDAY’S LOGIC.”

ABOUT THE EVOLUTION OF WORK ORGANIZATION
KEY HYPOTHESIS (FREDERIC LALOUX)
« Every time humanity has shi!ed to a new stage of consciousness, it has also invented a radically more productive organizational model »
Tribal / Impulsive / Fear, division of labour
Agrarian / Conformist / Hierarchy, trusting authority
Modern / Achievement / Innovation, profit, growth
Post-modern / Pluralistic / Culture-driven, consensus
ALL SOFAR ARE BASED ON A CLASSICAL PYRAMID STRUCTURE.
BUT WAIT, A NEW WAY IS JUST EMERGING AS COMPLEXITY
EXPLODES
Tribal / Impulsive / Fear, division of labour
Agrarian / Conformist / Hierarchy, trusting authority
Modern / Achievement / Innovation, profit, growth
Post-modern / Pluralistic / Culture-driven, consensus
Evolutionary
Self-management,
operating on a basis of
peer relationships rather
than hierarchy.
Evolutionary - TEAL
Wholeness,
which means the whole
person and not just the
professional self comes to
the workplace.
Evolutionary purpose,
in essence, the organization
itself having a direction and
a reason for living.
WHAT MAKES LIIP CLOSE TO TEAL?
- Lots of Liipers powered business and technology initiatives
- No middle management, no CEO, no head of’s, no team leads…
- Partners willing to let go, low salary ratio (1:3)
- 130 Liipers, roughly 4.5 FTE official management
SOME INDICATORS
SO, HOW DOES THAT WORK?
EMPOWERMENT

SELF ORGANISED TEAMS
- Sell, produce, maintain projects
- Hire, develop, organise Liipers
- Innovate
- “Do what you want, and take the responsibility”

OK, ARE THERE CONSTRAINTS?- Yes! A need to transparently monitor :
- Client delightment
- Team morale (or members happiness)
- Profitability
PEOPLE
LIIPERS ARE OUR MOST PRECIOUS ASSET!
STRATEGY
- Salary
- Conflicts management
- Bigger budget decisions
- Legal limitations
- Crisis?
WAIT, WE ARE NOT COMPLETELY “TEAL”
YET, SOME NASTY STUFF IS LEFT…
It might look like it, but it’s not that easy :)
- It takes time
- Collaborators mindset have a big influence
- It helps to be in a growing market
- Self vs. Shelf ? Which is the best way to go forward?
