Tired of so much adversity and polarization? Who are you listening to? Instead of talking with people who agree with you, have conversations with those who don’t. Start with listening.

People copy examples and then they wonder what is the trouble. They look at examples and without theory they learn nothing. W. Edwards Deming in The Deming of America. See a longer quote with more context. We can learn from looking at what others do well. But when we try and copy practices, processes, techniques, etc. most of the time we fail. The entire system works together to create results.

Statistically, that means that one of the coworkers sitting beside you is likely experiencing a substantial amount of stress. At some point, it’s sure to affect you, either directly or indirectly.

The cost of recruiting and retaining new salespeople was bleeding Martin Miller’s Gin company dry. That is, until two and a half years ago when CEO Jacob Ehrenkrona had a bright idea for tapping into a new part-time salesforce. Ehrenkrona realized that young musicians would make the perfect salespeople for his product. For one thing, they’re already in the places where he wants his gin to be — such as clubs, trendy bars, and hip restaurants.

One important reason why there are so many very badly managed firms in the world today is the widespread belief that management should be the responsibility of a few people at the top. The future of corporations may therefore depend on the rise of distributed forms of management, such as holacracy. Don’t cringe. True, Zappos’s recent experience with holacracy, as widely reported in the media, demonstrates that the transformation to distributed management is not easy.
