What if your organisation didn’t need a traditional hierarchy to thrive?
Are endless meetings, layers of approval, and rigid structures holding your team back? Could self-management be the key to unlocking greater agility, innovation, and trust?
These are questions we've been wanting to explore for a long time on the OrgDev Podcast.
In this episode, we’re joined by self-management expert Paul Jansen, who shares what it really takes to make self-management work – not just as a concept, but as a practical, sustainable way of operating. From decision-making without hierarchy to building accountability in a distributed system, Paul brings both clarity and experience to one of the most misunderstood ideas in organisation design.
Whether you're curious, cautious, or already experimenting with self-management, this one’s full of insight.
