Self-Management

The first breakthrough, Self-Management, requires upgrading almost all of the basic management practices and structures in the organization. That means, for example, breaking down the old hierarchy pyramid, sharing the responsibilities as a team and being accountable to your peers. Large groups need structure and coordinating mechanisms, but the future bars can operate more powerfully without managers and bosses. Leading bars as living organisms recognizes them as complex systems which are operated based on structures of distributed authority and collective intelligence.

The Self-Management section focuses on the following topics:

• Organizational Structure
• Staff Functions
• Information Flows
• Decision Making (part one)
• Decision Making (part two)
• Purchasing and Investments
• Project Management
• Budgets & Targets
• Performance Management
• Conflict & Crisis Management and Dismissals
• Compensation and Incentives
