Produktbeschreibung

A Wall Street Journal Bestseller. In a world of unrelenting change and unprecedented challenges, we need organizations that are resilient and daring.

Unfortunately, most organizations, overburdened by bureaucracy, are sluggish and timid. In the age of upheaval, top-down power structures and rule-choked management systems are liabilities. They crush creativity and stifle initiative. As leaders, employees, investors, and citizens, we deserve better. We need organizations that are bold, entrepreneurial, and as nimble as change itself.

In Humanocracy, Gary Hamel and Michele Zanini make a passionate, data-driven argument for excising bureaucracy and replacing it with something better. In this extensively revised and updated edition, drawing on more than a decade of research and packed with practical examples, Humanocracy lays out a detailed blueprint for creating organizations that are as inspired and ingenious as the human beings within them.

Critical building blocks include:

• Motivation: Rallying colleagues to the challenge of busting bureaucracy
• Models: Leveraging the experience of organizations that have profitably challenged the bureaucratic status quo
• Mindsets: Escaping the industrial-age thinking that frustrates progress
• Mobilization: Activating a pro-change coalition to hack outmoded management systems and processes
• Migration: Embedding the principles of humanocracyownership, markets, meritocracy, community, openness, experimentation, and paradoxin your organization's DNA

Whatever your role or title, Humanocracy will show you how to launch an unstoppable movement to equip and empower everyone in your organization to be their best and to do their best.

If you've finally run out of patience with bureaucratic bullshit . . .

If you want to build an organization that can outrun change . . .

If you're committed to giving every team member the chance to learn, grow, and contribute . . . then this book's for you.

"Hamel and Zanini may be onto something. Unleash people's creativity and productivity will improve, job satisfaction will increase, and workers in supposedly 'low-skilled' jobs will be free to demonstrate their abilities. If so, the future of work needn't be gloomy after all." - The Economist

"Humanocracy makes the case for replacing chain of command with chain of trust and radical transparency. It's a prescription for unlocking game-changing innovation and the value of every individual." - Marc Benioff, cofounder, Chairman, and CEO, Salesforce; New York Times bestselling author, Trailblazer

"Anyone trying to reinvent a legacy business should read Humanocracy. Gary Hamel and Michele Zanini set out a practical view on how to address the transformation challenges many companies are dealing with. Humanocracy highlights a lesson that has never been more important: businesses are all about people, and the more human we make them, the better." - Ana Botín, Executive Chairman, Banco Santander

"Rarely has the case for dismantling bureaucracy been made as effectively, passionately, and comprehensively. The time to start is now, and the book to read is Humanocracy. Essential to revitalizing our organizations and reinvigorating our economies." - Bengt Holmström, Paul A. Samuelson Professor of Economics, Emeritus, Massachusetts Institute of Technology; 2016 Nobel laureate in Economics

"Humanocracy provides the reader with a road map to helping organizations unleash creativity, energy, and resiliency through leveraging the core of every organization-humans." - Gen. Stanley McChrystal, US Army, Retired; bestselling author, Team of Teams

"Humanocracy is the most important management book I have read in a very long time. This is not just another book about the power of purpose or the joys of empowerment. Rather, it's a detailed, well-researched, data-driven, compellingly argued exposí on the massive costs of bureaucracy in society. Hamel and Zanini offer an equally compelling argument for why it doesn't have to be this way, complete with a practical guide for creating organizations that really work." - Amy Edmondson, Novartis Professor of Leadership and Management, Harvard Business School; author, The Fearless Organization
