Reinventing Organizations as Movements: Chloe Waretini (Making Change Broadcast)

Enspiral logo - tile - framedBeing a living laboratory means Creating the Future is always seeking others who are experimenting with different organizational forms.  

You can therefore imagine our joy to learn about the work being done at New Zealand based Enspiral!Per their website, “Enspiral is a bold experiment to create a collaborative network that helps people do meaningful work.”

The more Creating the Future has explored what leadership could look like if organizations were being the movements they want to see, the more the issues extend beyond leadership and decision-making. Organizational structure, relationships (within and outside the organization), business models – everything comes into question when we stop assuming that things have to be the way they’ve always been.

And these are the very issues Enspiral has been exploring! 

Which is why I am excited to have Enspiral collaborator Chloe Waretini join me for an hour, to provide insights into the grand experiment she is so fortunate to be a member of.

  • If you have been looking for alternatives to centralized, hierarchical decision-making…
  • If you have been wondering what it would take for your organization’s decision-making and participation to reflect the community you want to see…
  • If you have sensed there is a way to get your company or organization’s people more engaged in creating their own future (and present!)…

  1. Wow, Bernd – I’m so glad for that link!
    All systems are created for a purpose, and whether we realize it or not, that purpose (and the ripples of impacts created therefrom) live on for the life of the system. The intention behind current systems is not communal benefit but private benefit. Blakeman’s post underscores that in a big way. Thanks so much for the link! HG
