Great post, Daniel.  Our company worked with Tony Hseigh’s Downtown Las
Vegas Project last year and found the whole thing to be very
self-organizing.  

 

I’m surprised that Zappos is imposing any kind of mandate - where did you
discover this?

 

Namasté,

I can certainly imagine Open Space playing a role in Holacracies, and in
fact the "governance" in a Open Space could certainly be described as
"Holacratic" -- which is to say "ruling power" is totally distributed
amongst the participants. But there is a real difference. Holacracy in Open
Space is totally an emergent phenomenon. Nobody designed it, nobody
implements it -- it just shows up all by itself. Holacracy in places like
Zappos is a designed phenomenon. Doubtless it works pretty well, but it does
seem to me that they may be working a little too hard, creating something
that can and does happen all by itself. I think.

I heard that Holacracy is somehow based upon the principles of Open Space
and uses Open space for its implementation.

Hello Kári,

 

Interesting question. How do you see the link between Open space and 

Holacracy?

 

Kind regards, Rob van der Eyden

There have been much talk about the relationship of the organizational 

chart and how Open Space operates. Recent compareson to me has been to 

link the new self-organizing authority and decision-making system 

called Holacracy

see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holacracy

 

I wonder if there are stories on the use of Open space to transform 

more traditional system to one of Open Space based Holacracy?  I would 

be happy to learn some of your experiences in this regard.
