    Who Needs A Boss

    What Is A Holacracy?

    Holacracy is an organizational system with no job


    titles, no managers and no top-down hierarchy with
    upper, middle or lower levels where decisions can
    get hung up. Through holacracy the focus is on the
    work that needs to be done and not on some
    hierarchal structure where great ideas and
    suggestions can get lost in the channels of
    reporting.
    What Benefits do you see to an
    organization using holacracy?

    An organization with no job titles, no managers and


    no hierarchy, or in other words, an organization
    following the steps of holacracy, is claimed to
    increase agility, efficiency, transparency, innovation
    and accountability (within the organization). The
    approach encourages individual team members to
    take initiative and gives them a process in which
    their concerns or ideas can be addressed.
    What Challenges does a holacratic
    approach have?

    The transition to a holacracy, however, does


    not come without challenges. The hardest
    challenge that holacracy needs to face is
    possibly its sustainability. The problem arises
    when the incapacity of the teams to self-
    regulate becomes evident. As human being, we
    tend not to have the necessary discipline
    required to manage ourselves, which
    invalidates the self-management effort at the
    base of the holacratic revolution. Moreover,
    it's very hard to apply compensation to an
    employee and its hard for an employee to get a
    proper incentive. Lastly the consensual,
    democratic decision-making and getting
    everyone's opinion can seem chaotic and too
    much consensus, too much effort.
    Would you or would you not like to
    work in an organization like this?

    On the basis of opinion and choice, I would like to


    opt for an organization which follows holacratic
    approach. It is because first of all, it would give me
    control over my own independent decisions and
    actions. Secondly, according to the views of people
    working under a holacratic approach, every task
    and project realized with a circle in the
    organization, needs to contribute towards the
    purpose and every strategic decision made is
    focused on the company's purpose of existence. In
    other words what I think is in an holacratic
    approach the focus is to make the people feel like
    home given the free will to talk so that in case of
    any problem everyone's focus will be to get rid of
    the problem and since unity is strength so it will be
    easier. So because of all this I would like to opt for a
    holacratic organization.
